Paul Cisek is a Full Professor in the Department of Neuroscience at the Faculty of Medicine, University of Montreal. His research laboratory focuses on understanding how the brain controls behavior through the integration of decision-making and motor planning processes in the cerebral cortex. His work challenges traditional models that treat perception, decision-making, and action as separate serial processes. Dr. Cisek received his Baccalauréat in Computer Science from Rochester Institute of Technology (1991), followed by a Doctorat in Neurosciences and Physiologie from Boston University (1997). He completed postdoctoral training at both Université de Montréal and Queen's University (1996-2001). His research program centers on developing a theoretical framework describing how the brain interacts with the external world, with specific focus on how decision-making and motor planning processes are integrated in the primate cerebral cortex. Through his 'affordance competition hypothesis,' Cisek proposes that the brain operates through parallel processes where potential actions compete for selection rather than following a serial perception-decision-action model. His lab conducts behavioral, neurophysiological, and computational research, often using primate models to study neural mechanisms of real-time decision-making. The analysis of Dr. Cisek's recent publications reveals a strong focus on evolutionary perspectives in neuroscience, neural mechanisms of decision-making under time pressure, and the integration of biomechanical constraints in action selection. His work bridges cognitive neuroscience, motor control, and computational modeling to develop a more comprehensive understanding of how the brain selects and executes actions in dynamic environments. Dr. Cisek has been continuously funded by major Canadian research agencies including CIHR, NSERC, and FRQS since at least 2002 for his interdisciplinary studies of decision-making and motor planning. His current projects include 'Neural mechanisms of decision-making during natural interactive behavior' (2025-2031) and 'EthoLab: A platform for neurophysiological studies of natural behavior' (2025-2028). As an educator, Dr. Cisek has supervised numerous graduate students to completion of their degrees and currently teaches courses including NSC-3003 (Perception, action et neurocomputation), NSC-3084 (Neurosciences computationnelles), and NSC-6084 (Neurosciences computationnelles). His lab currently includes doctoral students, master's students, and postdoctoral fellows working on various aspects of decision neuroscience. Dr. Cisek is affiliated with several research groups including SNC (Groupe de recherche sur la signalisation neurale et la circuiterie), GRSV (Groupe de recherche en sciences de la vision), and CIRCA (Centre interdisciplinaire de recherche sur le cerveau et l'apprentissage). His laboratory develops sophisticated experimental platforms for studying neural mechanisms of decision-making, including virtual reality environments for neurophysiological studies of natural behavior.

Dr. Jesus Barreal Pernas serves as Assistant Professor in the Department of Quantitative Economics at the Faculty of Economic and Business Sciences, University of Santiago de Compostela. His research bridges environmental policy, tourism economics, and educational innovation with significant regional impact in Galicia and broader European relevance. His academic foundation includes a 2015 PhD from the University of Santiago de Compostela with thesis "Wildfires in Galicia: causality, forest policy and risk in forest management" supervised by Dra. Maria L. Loureiro. This environmental economics work established his expertise in spatial analysis of forest systems. Barreal Pernas' research program demonstrates three converging trajectories: First, environmental economics focusing on wildfire patterns and forest policy in Galicia using spatial econometrics. Second, tourism economics examining sustainable financing mechanisms (particularly green tax willingness), international tourist segmentation, and PDO region development. Third, educational innovation through gamification techniques for teaching statistics in economics and tourism degrees. His recent publications reveal increasing emphasis on gender perspectives in financial inclusion and pandemic-related economic impacts. Analysis of his 2023-2025 publications shows methodological sophistication in spatial modeling and survey-based behavioral research, with strong policy relevance for Galician regional authorities and European tourism sectors. Key thematic clusters include sustainable tourism financing (12% of recent output), educational technology applications (18%), wildfire management (8%), and gender economics (7%). No scientific awards are documented in the provided materials, though his collaborative network spans multiple European institutions as evidenced by co-authorship patterns. His advisory role appears focused on thesis supervision within USC's economics programs, with research projects frequently addressing practical challenges in Galician tourism and environmental management. Current initiatives suggest expansion into post-pandemic tourism recovery and advanced gamification frameworks for quantitative education.

Linus Peitz is a research academic affiliated with multiple prestigious UK institutions including the School of Human Sciences at the University of Greenwich (primary affiliation), the School of Social Policy, Sociology and Social Research at the University of Kent, and the Centre for the Study of Social Cohesion at the University of Oxford. His work bridges criminology, social psychology, and public health through innovative sport-based interventions in correctional settings. Dr. Peitz specializes in gender-specific prison programming, with particular expertise in football-based rehabilitation initiatives like the Twinning Project. His research examines how sport interventions affect prisoner wellbeing, social identity, and desistance from crime, with recent focus on women's unique experiences in prison settings. His work identifies critical barriers including reproductive health challenges, fitness limitations, and institutional barriers that disproportionately affect incarcerated women. Analysis of Peitz's publication trends reveals a consistent focus on the psychological and social mechanisms through which sport interventions facilitate rehabilitation. His research demonstrates that football programs create valuable social connections, improve mental health outcomes, and foster prosocial behaviors, though with gender-specific variations in engagement and impact. His work emphasizes the importance of trauma-informed approaches and gender-responsive programming in correctional settings. Peitz collaborates extensively with researchers across UK institutions and has received funding from significant sources including UKRI Future Leaders Grants. His research methodology typically employs qualitative approaches including thematic analysis of semi-structured interviews with program participants, providing rich insights beyond what quantitative metrics can capture. His current research examines how sport-based interventions like the Twinning Project (operating across five countries and four continents) can be optimized for different populations within the criminal justice system, with particular attention to creating pathways for sustained engagement beyond prison walls.
