Dr. David Ulises Santos Ballardo is a research scientist at the Research Center of Food and Development in Mexico, is interested in using second-generation and microalgae biomass to develop biorefineries, including biofuels and other valuable products. He has more than 14 years of field and laboratory experience on this topic, having published more than 27 publications (articles, chapters, books, and divulgation publications, published, in press, or submitted) of research and scientific outreach.  Dr. Sergio Rossi is a research scientist specialized in marine natural resources and biological oceanography, focused in health indicators of coastal benthic suspension feeder populations, flows of matter and energy in the benthic-pelagic coupling, the animal forests as carbon sinks, and the management/conservation of benthic marine wildlife, with also a wide experience in articles publications, and also in editing and publishing books in Springer-Nature. He has now more than 180 scientific publications (published, in press or submitted). He has an H factor of 40 (SCOPUS). He is professor in the Universidade Federal do Cearà and Università del Salento, and also Scientific Director of Underwater Gardens International.
