Martin Brinkworth is a Senior Lecturer in Biomedical Sciences at the University of Bradford (UK). Inspired by evolutionary science as a Zoology undergraduate, he now studies the transmission of heritable mutation and epigenetic alteration through the male germline, and their implications for human health. Friedel Weinert is professor of philosophy at the University of Bradford (UK). His research interests focus on the interrelation between philosophy and science.
