+    <div id="speakerinfo"><h3>Fernando Perez</h3> 
+       Fernando Perez received his PhD in Physics from the University of
+       Colorado, Boulder, in 2002 working on questions regarding the
+       toplogical structure of the QCD vacuum using Lattice Gauge Theory
+       techniques. He then worked at the Applied Mathematics Dept. at the
+       same university, focusing on the development of a new family of
+       algorithms for the efficient application of linear operators in
+       multiple dimensions, with a focus on the uses of such techniques on
+       the (bound state) multiparticle Schrodinger Equation. Since early 2008,
+       he has worked as a research scientist at the Helen Wills Neuroscience
+       Institute at the University of California, Berkeley, on the development
+       of new algorithms and tools for neuroimaging. He is actively involved
+       in the development of tools for scientific computing using high-level
+       languages, in particular Python. He is the original author and leader
+       of the IPython project for interactive computing
+       (http://ipython.scipy.org) and an active contributor to other
+       scientific Python projects as well as a frequent lecturer on these
+       topics.</div>

+        Satrajit Ghosh is a research scientist at Research Laboratory of
+        Electronics at MIT and a faculty member of the Speech and Hearing
+        Biosciences and Technology program within the Harvard-MIT division
+        of Health Sciences and Technology. He has extensive experience with
+        neuroimaging, signal processing and software development. He has
+        developed state-of-the-art tools for analysis of neuroimaging data
+        and is managing the development of a Python-based, opensource,
+        multi-institution software project aimed at improving interoperability
+        among existing imaging analysis software packages
+        (http://nipy.org/nipype/). His current research focus is on
+        utilizing pattern classification approaches for diagnosis and
+        prediction of neurological disorders. His prior work involves
+        real-time synthesis of computer music and sound effects, controlling
+        chaotic oscillators, computational modeling of speech acquisition
+        and production, and realtime DSP-based speech signal processing. He
+        holds a BS(Honors) degree in Computer Science from the National
+        University of Singapore and a PhD in Cognitive and Neural Systems
+        from Boston University.</div>

+      was based on Very Large Array radio observations of the first discovered
+      gravitational lens. After a short stint in communications engineering
+      at Bell Labs, he ended up at the Space Telescope Science Institute,
+      where he has worked for the last 25 years. He initially was responsible
+      for calibrating the Faint Object Camera for the Hubble Space Telescope,
+      but for the last 15 years he has been leading the Science Software
+      Branch. He has pioneered the use of Python in astronomy, and his group
+      been heavily involved in Python for the last 12 years. They have
+      developed PyRAF, numarray (the precursor to current numpy capabilities),
+      PyFITS, and been heavily involved in the development and support of
+      matplotlib. His group is now heavily involved in developing the science
+      software to support the next large space telescope under construction,
+      the James Webb Space Telescope.
