Manlio Vinciguerra, BSc, MSc, PhD is a Principal Research Associate at the Institute for Liver and Digestive Health, University College London (UCL), UK. He holds research appointments at the International Clinical Research Center (ICRC), St. Anne's University Hospital, Brno, Czech Republic, and at the Italian Liver Foundation, University of Trieste, Italy. He obtained his BSc with Honours from the University of Catania, Italy, in 1999, with an experimental thesis performed at St. Radboud University Hospital, Nijmegen, Netherlands, on mitochondrial porins. In 2001, he joined the Department of Internal Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, University of Geneva (Switzerland), as a PhD student. In 2005 he joined as a post-doc the Department of Cell Physiology and Metabolism, Faculty of Medicine, University of Geneva (Switzerland). In 2008, supported by an interdisciplinary fellowship (EIPOD) he undertook a second post-doctoral project at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), between Heidelberg (Germany) and Monterotondo (Italy), prior to joining UCL. Dr. Vinciguerra delivered seminars in more than 20 countries, and he authored over 110 papers research and review papers on epigenetics, liver diseases, metabolism and cancer. Paul Cordero Sanchez, Pharmacist, MSc, PhD is a researcher at the Institute for Liver and Digestive Health, at University College London (London, United Kingdom). Dr. Cordero was graduated in 2007 at University of Navarra (Pamplona, Spain) in Pharmacy. During his degree he worked on research at Microbiology Department and at the Department of Nutrition, Food Science and Physiology. Moreover, he obtained a fellowship to carry out a stay at Santo Antonio Hospital (Porto, Portugal). After his master degree on Metabolism and Nutrition he obtained a competitive fellowship to perform his PhD in Pharmacy, gained on October 2012, at the Department of Nutrition, Food Science and Physiology at University of Navarra. During his career he has also carried out stays at Catalan Institute of Oncology (Barcelona, Spain) and University of Cambridge (Cambridge, United Kingdom). His research has been focused in the molecular regulation of diet-induced obesity and its comorbidities. He has worked on human and animal trials focused both in adult life, as well as in maternal nutrition during perinatal stages and its consequences on the offspring risk of suffer metabolic diseases. He has lectured in national and international symposia, reviewed journal and grant agencies and coordinated and organized conferences. He is also currently a member of the European Nutrition Leadership Platform.
