Evelyne Barbin (France, 1949), full professor of epistemology, history of science and technology at the University of Nantes. Her research concerns mainly: history of mathematics in 17th century (the emergence of infinitesimal calculus; relations between physics, technics and mathematics); the meaning of mathematical proof in history, research on mathematics and the sciences in the 19th century (the contrast between synthetic and analytic geometry; the heritage of Monge and Carnot in France; discourses on science and discourses on sciences in the 19th century), history of algorithms and machines, relations between history and teaching. She is author of about 100 papers and 20 edited books. Recent books: La revolution mathematique du XVIIe siecle, Paris: Ellipses, 2006; Sciences et arts visuels. Representations du corps et materiaux de l'art (ed. E. Barbin, D. Le Nen,), Paris: Vuibert, 2009; 1867 L'annee de tous les Rapports. Les lettres et les sciences a la fin du Second Empire (ed. E. Barbin, J.-L. Godet, G. Stenger), Pornic: Editions du Temps, 2009; Gabriel Lame. Les peregrinations d'un ingenieur du XIXe siecle (ed. E. Barbin) Paris: Sabix, Ecole Polytechnique, 2009.

Raffaele Pisano (Italy, 1970), lauream in physics (University of Naples "Federico II"), specialized in teaching both physics and mathematics (University of Naples "Federico II"), and a Ph.D. (University of Rome "La Sapienza"). He was temporary professor of history of physics at (SSIS, University of Udine) and since 2006 he is currently Member of steering committee of European Society for the History of Science. He recently edited: Scienze e Religioni. Il ruolo delle scienze naturali, ipotesi di studio e prospettive (Uniservice editore, 2008, with Rafael Pascual), Qual e il ruolo culturale ed interdisciplinare delle scienze fisiche e matematiche?
