This section is for biographies of people who have contributed to the fields of thermodynamics and/or statistical mechanics. If a biography concerning yourself (or you wish to start your own biography) is here then please go ahead and edit it. After all, you know your scientific background better than anyone else. One of the most important sections is a (hyper-linked) publications list. Other interesting details would be the name of one's PhD supervisor, a list of the PhD's one has supervised, as well as a link to your ResearcherID account.
