Paniz Izadi is a lead scientist for the H2020-funded project VIVALDI at Helmholtz-Centre for Environmental Research (UFZ), Germany. Her current research focuses on developing methods for electrochemical CO₂ reduction and its interfacing to microbiology for industrial applications, following her previous research on microbial CO₂ reduction in bio-electrochemical systems. She received her PhD in chemical engineering from Newcastle University, UK in 2020.

Falk Harnisch holds a full professorship at Leipzig University for electrobiotechnology and is a group leader at the Helmholtz-Centre for Environmental Research (UFZ), Germany. He received his PhD from Greifswald University, Germany in 2009, as well as several fellowships and awards, and is currently serving as a president of the International Society for Microbial Electrochemistry and Technology. His research ranges from fundamentals of microbial electrochemistry via electro-organic synthesis to engineering of microbial electrochemical technologies.
