Dia Zeidan is Associate Professor of Applied and Computational Mathematics at the German Jordanian University, Amman, Jordan, and Elected Fellow of the European Society of Computational Methods in Sciences and Engineering. An active researcher in developing mathematical and numerical tools of multiphase fluid flow problems for several years, he is recognized for research contributions in applied and computational mathematics with multiphase flows including his creative approaches to teaching and research. His work has been highly interdisciplinary, involving international collaborations with applied and computational researchers. Among various institutional obligations, he has been visitor of several important international research groups bridging with national research infrastructure gaps in Jordan. He serves on several expert review panels, as Technical Editor and Reviewer for several peer-reviewed journals and as Member of several program committees of technical conferences around the world.  

Jochen Merker is Professor of Analysis and Optimization at the Leipzig University of Applied Sciences (HTWK Leipzig), Germany, since 2015. He received his Ph.D. in Mathematics from the University of Hamburg, Germany, in 2005. Afterwards, he worked as Postdoc in Applied Analysis at the University of Rostock, Germany, received his Habilitation in 2012 and became Professor at the Applied University of Stralsund, in 2013, before he became Full Professor at HTWK Leipzig. His research focuses on partial differential equations (PDEs) and functional analysis, particularly functional analytic settings for linear and nonlinear stationary and evolution equations, especially degenerate and singular parabolic PDEs with non-local terms, and on (contact) Hamiltonian systems on manifolds. Regarding this topic, in 2018, he received an honorable mention in the international Ian Snook Prize 2017 for his contribution in the field.
