As you know you can see everyone who's registered for the conference, but I highlight 4-6 participants every day as this may be an easier way for you to digest the list. You can also look at the Program so see who is doing what.

Jonathan Eisen is a Professor at UC Davis, Academic Editor in Chief of PLoS Biology, author of the Evolution textbook, a blogger and a twitterer. At the conference, Jonathan will lead the session "Open Access Publishing and Freeing the Scientific Literature (or Why Freedom is about more than just not paying for things)".

Russ Williams is the Executive Director of the North Carolina Zoological Society and a blogger. He is also on Twitter. At the conference, Russ will do a demo of FieldTripEarth.

Ivan Oransky is a veteran science journalist, a veteran of our conferences, and now the Executive editor at Reuters Health. He can also be found on Twitter.

Misha Angrist is the Assistant Professor in the Duke University Institute for Genome Sciences & Policy. He uses his blog Genomeboy to write about the experience of being one of the subjects of the Personal Genome Project.
