Anna C. Peacock is a Professor of Photonics within the Optoelectronics Research Centre (ORC) at the University of Southampton.  She obtained her BSc and MSc in Physics from The University of Auckland (New Zealand), before moving to the ORC to undertake a PhD in Nonlinear Fibre Optics. She was subsequently awarded a Royal Academy of Engineering Research Fellowship, in recognition of her pioneering work on fiberized semiconductor devices. Anna now heads the Nonlinear Semiconductor Photonics group, where the focus of her research is on the design and development of novel semiconductor waveguides. She is a fellow of the Optical Society (FOSA), the IEEE Photonics Society (FIEEE), and the Institute of Physics (FInstP). She is currently serving as a Deputy Director of the ORC, responsible for the Photonics Systems, Circuits and Sensors group.

Claudio Conti is associate professor at the Department of Physics of the University Sapienza in Rome. He has been Director of the Institute of Complex Systems of the Italian National Research Council. He received the New Talent Grant from the Research Center Enrico Fermi and a Humboldt fellowship at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light. He participated in various research projects, including an ERC Grant, “Light and Complexity,” that led to the first observation of replica symmetry breaking, cited in the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2021. CC authored over 250 articles in top-level journals; his research interests encompass complex systems, machine learning, photonics, and nonlinear optics with applications such as Ising machines and fundamental tests of quantum mechanics.
