Olga Sokolova, Ph.D., is a risk analyst and electrical engineer with expertise in the domain of critical infrastructure risk assessment to natural catastrophes. She develops structural risk-management tools towards a sustainable future which are accessible to the general public. Olga Sokolova has a record in raising awareness of emerging risks and opportunities brought to the society by infrastructure developments.

Nikolay Korovkin, Ph.D., is a full professor and head of Theoretic Electrical Engineering Department at Peter the Great Saint-Petersburg Polytechnic University (SPbPU). His research interests are inverse problems in electric circuits and electromagnetics, power control systems described by stiff equations, the problems of the earthquakes electromagnetic prediction, and the identification of the biological objects behaviour under the electromagnetic fields.

Masashi Hayakawa, Ph.D., is an emeritus professor of the University of Electro-Communications, and also CEO of Hayakawa Institute of Seismo Electromagnetics, Co.Ltd. His general interests are radio noises around the Earth, including plasma waves in the upper ionosphere/magnetosphere (generation and propagation of plasma waves), radio noise and related phenomena in the atmosphere related to lightning, EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility), and radio noises from the lithosphere and seismic-associated atmospheric and ionospheric phenomena (for earthquake prediction).
