Madeleine Schultz completed her Ph.D. in Organometallic Chemistry at the University of California, Berkeley and continued with research in catalysis at the University of Heidelberg and the Australian National University prior to commencing at the Queensland University of Technology in 2007. Observation of student difficulties when studying chemistry led to her growing interest in chemistry education and she undertook a Masters in Education to expand her understanding of the field. She is currently working at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory in Heidelberg, Germany. Siegbert Schmid completed his Ph.D. and Habilitation at the University of T�bingen in Germany in inorganic chemistry. During his postdoctoral appointment at the Australian National University he started lecturing and in parallel completed a Graduate Diploma in Higher Education. He took up an academic position at the University of Sydney in 2002 and has since supervised numerous chemistry education projects both at Honours and Ph.D. level. He has received a large number of teaching awards, including the Medal of the Chemistry Education Division of the Royal Australian Chemical Institute in 2016. Thomas Holme completed his Ph.D. at Rice University in Theoretical Chemistry, and held postdoctoral appointments at Hebrew University of Jerusalem and the University of Pennsylvania, prior to his tenure track career, which took him to the University of South Dakota, University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee and currently Iowa State University. He served as the Director of the American Chemical Society (ACS) Examinations Institute from 2002-2015 and was recently announced as the 2017 recipient of the Pimentel Award for Chemistry Education of the ACS.
