-    <div id="speakerinfo"><h3>Fernando Perez</h3> 
-       Fernando Perez received his PhD in Physics from the University of
-       Colorado, Boulder, in 2002, working on questions regarding the
-       toplogical structure of the QCD vacuum using Lattice Gauge Theory
-       techniques. He then worked at the Applied Mathematics department 
-       there, focusing on the development of a new family of
-       algorithms for the efficient application of linear operators in
-       multiple dimensions, with a focus on the uses of such techniques on
-       the (bound state) multiparticle Schrodinger Equation. Since early 2008,
-       he has worked as a research scientist at the Helen Wills Neuroscience
-       Institute at the University of California, Berkeley, on the development
-       of new algorithms and tools for neuroimaging. He is actively involved
-       in the development of tools for scientific computing using high-level
-       languages, in particular Python. He is the creator and lead developer
-       of the IPython project for interactive computing
-       (http://ipython.scipy.org) and an active contributor to other
-       scientific Python projects, as well as a frequent lecturer on these
-       topics.</div>

-    <div id="speakerinfo"><h3>John Hunter</h3> 
-      John Hunter received his Ph.D. in Neurobiology from the University of
-      Chicago for experimental and numerical modeling work on the synchronization
-      of neurons to aperiodic stimuli and the non-linear response of synapses
-      to aperiodic inputs. His postdoctoral research was in coherence and
-      characterization of transient synchronizations in pediatric epilepsy.
-      He left academia in 2005 for quantitative finance, and is a Senior
-      Quantitative Analyst at TradeLink Securities. An avid python programmer
-      and lecturer in scientific computing in python, he is the creator
-      and lead developer of the scientific visualization package, matplotlib.

-      Perry Greenfield received a Ph.D. in Physics from M.I.T. His thesis
-      was based on Very Large Array radio observations of the first discovered
-      gravitational lens. After a short stint in communications engineering
-      at Bell Labs, he ended up at the Space Telescope Science Institute,
-      where he has worked for the last 25 years. He was initially responsible
-      for calibrating the Faint Object Camera for the Hubble Space Telescope,
-      but for the last 15 years has been leading the Science Software
-      Branch. He has pioneered the use of Python in astronomy, and his group
-      has been heavily involved in Python for the last 12 years. They have
-      developed PyRAF, numarray (the precursor to current numpy capabilities),
-      PyFITS, and were heavily involved in the development and support of
-      matplotlib. His group is now involved in developing the science
-      software to support the next large space telescope under construction,
-      the James Webb Space Telescope.
