Andrea Braides is professor of Mathematical Analysis at the University of Rome Tor Vergata. He is the author among others of the books Gamma-convergence for Beginners and (with A.Defranceschi) Homogenization of Multiple Integrals. He was an invited speaker at the 2014 International Congress of Mathematicians in Seoul in the section Mathematics in Science and Technology.Margherita Solci is professor of Mathematical Analysis at the University of Sassari at Alghero. She works on various topics involving variational convergence; in particular, static and dynamic passages from discrete to continuum.
