* Dr Itiel Dror, Senior Lecturer in Cognitive Neuroscience at the
University of Southampton;
* Hans Rosling, Professor of International Health, Karolinska Institute,

*Important note*
Some projects or teams will have more to report in September 2008 than they can summarise in an abstract written in February 2008. To take account of this, the Co-Chairs of the Conference Committee emphasise that: "in judging proposals, ALT Reviewers will take an understanding attitude regarding proposals referring to or reporting on work taking place between now and the date of the conference".
Proposals should address up to three of the conference dimensions: global or local; institutional or individual; pedagogy or technology; access or exclusion; open or proprietary;
For more detail on these, see: http://www.alt.ac.uk/
