Thomas L. Beck is a Professor of Chemistry at the University of Cincinnati. His research focuses on development of quantum simualtion methods and solution phase theory and modeling. Michael E. Paulaitis is Professor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering and Ohio Eminent Scholar at Ohio State University. He is also Director of the Institute of Multiscale Modeling of Biological Interactions at Johns Hopkins University. His research focuses on molecular thermodynamics of hydration, protein solution thermodynamics and molecular simulations of biological macromolecules Lawrence R. Pratt works in the Theoretical Chemistry and Molecular Physics Group at Los Alamos National Laboratory. His research focuses on theoretical problems in chemical physics, but especially theory of molecular solutions and hydration problems in molecular biophysics.
