Raghu Meka is an assistant professor in the Computer Science department at UCLA. He is broadly interested in complexity theory, learning, and probability theory. He got his Ph.D. from UT Austin under the direction of David Zuckerman. He spent two years as a postdoctoral fellow at the Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton and Rutgers University.

Oanh Nguyen is a graduate student in mathematics at Yale University. Her undergraduate advisor, Professor Duong Minh Duc, at University of Science, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, played an important role in deepening her interest in analysis. She gained much of her knowledge and interest in probability from her graduate advisor, Van Vu. Her research interests include analysis, combinatorics, and probability theory.

Van Vu completed his undergraduate studies at Eötvös University (Budapest) in 1994. He then moved to Yale and wrote his Ph.D. thesis under the direction of László Lovász. He is currently the Percey F. Smith professor of mathematics at Yale, after having spent time at the Institute for Advanced Study, Microsoft Research, UC San Diego, and Rutgers. His research interests include probability, number theory, combinatorics, and theoretical computer science.
