Xiaoying ZHANG, Ph D in Pharmacology (Charité Medical University Berlin), Distinguished Professor at Shaanxi Univ. of Technology (2019-present); Senior Researcher at CBMA, Univ. of Minho, Portugal (2016-present); Professor (Adjunct) at Univ. of Guelph, Canada (2017-present); Professor at Northwest Agricultural & Forestry Univ., China (2008-2018). He has been dedicated to the development, popularisation and application of Ig Y Technology.   Ricardo S. Vieira-Pires is an Assistant Investigator at the Center for Neuroscience and Cell Biology (CNC), University of Coimbra, Portugal. He obtained his Ph D in Structural Biology (2008) at University Joseph Fourier, Grenoble, France. He is head of the Structural Biotechnology Group that studies proteins and molecular assemblies involved in key processes of bacterial and viral infectious diseases. He is particularly interested in targeting microbial surface-exposed virulent factors using antibodies. He is head of the CNC – Avian Technological Unit that explores bird immune repertoires for antibody discovery. He is engaged with academic and industry partners promoting Ig Y Technology-based solutions for human and veterinary medicine. Patricia M. Morgan is an Emerita Senior Lecturer at the National University of Ireland Galway (NUI Galway). Having been awarded a Ph D in Biochemistry at NUI Galway, she undertook post-doctoral research at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA in the areas of reproductive biology and endocrinology.  She has held senior positions at NUI Galway as Dean of the College of Science and Dean of Graduate Studies.  In these posts, she has championed research developments within the University particularly in the areas of Biotechnology and Innovation. She has served on various national committees promoting science and is an advocate for the public understanding of science and the promotion of inclusion and diversity in academia. Rüdiger Schade started his scientific career at the Institute of Pharmacology, Charité – Universitätsmedizin in Berlin, Germany, in 1976. Since the early 1990’s, his research has been strongly focused on the development, production and application of Ig Y antibodies. His contributions significantly influenced the field of Ig Y-technology and promoted the application of this technology worldwide, particularly in Latin-America. In acknowledgement of his research efforts, he received the FISEA prize – the International Foundation for the Substitution of Animal Experimentation, Luxemburg – in 1997.
