Annelida

Greg Rouse is a Distinguished Professor of Marine Biology and is also Curator of the Benthic Invertebrate Collection at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, University of California, San Diego, USA. He specializes in studying the biodiversity, phylogeny, and systematics of marine animals. He has been on numerous oceanographic expeditions involving deep sea habitats, including whale falls, hydrothermal vents and methane seeps and has been involved in the discovery and naming of more than 200 species, mostly annelids. Prior to joining Scripps, he held research positions at the South Australian Museum and University of Sydney, and as a research fellow (with Kristian Fauchald) at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington DC, USA. Ekin Tilic is currently serving as Curator of Marine Invertebrates at the Senckenberg Research Institute and Natural History Museum in Frankfurt, and as an Adjunct Professor at the University of Bonn, Germany. He was elected the president of the International Polychaetology Association in 2023. His academic journey includes extensive postdoctoral research focused on annelid evolution and morphology at the Institute of Evolutionary Biology, University of Bonn, at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, University of California, San Diego and at the University of Copenhagen, Denmark. His research combines phylogenomic methods with advanced bioimaging techniques to study the evolutionary relationships and morphology of marine invertebrate taxa, particularly polychaetes. Fredrik Pleijel is a Senior Researcher at Tjärnö Marine Laboratory, Department of Marine Sciences, University of Gothenburg, Sweden. He previously held a position as curator at the Swedish Museum of Natural History, completed a post-doc working mainly on hesionid polychaetes (also with Kristian Fauchald) at the Smithsonian Institution and was formerly Senior researcher at Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle in Paris, France.
