Barbara Elvers obtained a Ph.D. in carbohydrate chemistry from the University of Hamburg in 1979. She then moved to the USA in 1980 where she was employed as a visiting scientist at SRI, Palo Alto, in the life science department. Since 1985 she has been serving in a variety of roles in publishing, first as a freelance translator of textbooks in chemistry, and since 1987 as an editor for the Ullmann's Encyclopedia, for which she is currently the editor-in-chief. One of the main subjects of her editorial work was the acquisition of authors and articles in the field of energy generation and fuels.
Andrea Schütze holds a Ph.D. in chemistry. She is the former global innovation manager of the automotive fuel division of Shell Global Solutions. Based in Hamburg she started as head of the fuels laboratory and moved on to a variety of roles in the fuels and lubricants research & development.
