Guillaume Deffuant is Head of the "Laboratoire d'Ingénierie des Systèmes Complexes" in Cemagref Clermont-Ferrand.
His research interest is the simulation of complex systems, especially through the involvement of dynamic geometric components and structures. The complex dynamics obtained can be related to cognitive, social or ecological systems. He graduated from Ecole Polytechnique and obtained a PhD in Cognitive Science in 1992.

Frédéric Amblard is currently PhD student in Computer Science of the Blaise Pascal University, France. He works in the Cemagref Research Centre at the Laboratory of Engineering for Complex Systems. The subject of his research deals with the development of methodologies, experimental designs and tools for the exploration of the so-called 'social network effect' in the agent-based simulations of social systems.

A physicist by training (PhD 1967), Gérard Weisbuch has been working on biological and social complex systems since the late 70s: complex systems dynamics, evolution, neural nets, immunology and more recently environment and social networks. He is a member of the CNRS working at Ecole Normale and an external faculty at the Santa Fe Institute.

Thierry Faure got his PhD in Physics of the Atmosphere in 2000 from the University Blaise Pascal (Clermont-Ferrand). He is currently doing research in agriculture and environment at Cemagref (Clermont-Ferrand). His main interests concern modelling and simulation of complex systems (social, ecosystem,...).
