	Dr. Anna Sabbatini, Marche Polytechnic University (Italy) Anna Sabbatini is currently a research postdoctoral fellow at the Department of Life and Environmental Sciences (Di.S.V.A) at the Polytechnic University of Marche where she also achieved her PhD in Ecology and Marine Biology. Her main research concerns the ecology and biodiversity of modern benthic foraminifera and she developed a particular expertise with soft-shelled species (e.g. “allogromiids”), an often neglected but extremely important component of faunal benthic communities. The main part of her PhD work was based on Arctic and Antarctic shallow water faunas but she also worked on samples from bathyal, abyssal and hadal depths in the NE Atlantic, SE Pacific and Southern Ocean and Mediterranean Sea. The sensitivity of foraminifera to environmental conditions has stimulated her interest in their biology as well as taxonomy. Since the middle of last century, foraminifera have been studied extensively by geologists, biostratigraphers and paleontologists in order to provide proxies for use in paleoecological and paleoceanographic reconstructions and climate change models. This has led her to explore linkages between biological studies and the use of foraminifera in interpreting the paleoceanographic record. Later post-doctoral work has been wide ranging, both scientifically and geographically and it included the following components: better comprehension of the biocoenoses including “allogromiids”, experimental ecology of foraminifera, interpretation of paleoenvironnements and evaluation of the geochemical proxies. She won the prestigious Joseph A. Cushman Award for student research, the MarBEF award for taxonomic facilities, a CNR Short Mobility Grant and the “Luigi e Francesca Brusarosco” Award, which facilitates research in environmental sciences by Italian researchers in foreign countries. She collaborates as invited researcher at the Natural History Museum of Paris (MNHN) where she focus her scientific attention on the molecular mechanisms of biomineralization in foraminifera. At the ISF Course, she lectures on the taxonomy, distribution and ecology of monothalamous foraminifera better known as “allogromiids”.
	Prof. Rudolf Röttger, University of Kiel (Germany) Rudolf Röttger has retired from his position as Professor of zoology at Kiel University.

Then, at the Institute of Zoology of the University of Kiel, he started his scientific career as a marine biologist with a doctoral thesis on copepods parasitic on star fishes. Next, at the Institute for Geology and Palaeontology he began thirty years of research on the biology of the larger benthic foraminifera, using living specimens from laboratory cultures. A Postgraduate Scholarship from the Max Kade Foundation, New York, led him to the University of Hawaii at Manoa where, by making ecological studies in the natural habitat of the foraminifera and by collecting specimens for cultures, he was able to improve his laboratory culture conditions. Rudolf Röttger's qualification for teaching Zoology (habilitation) was supported by a grant from the German Science Foundation. His teaching focused on protozoology and included courses on invertebrates. His research comprised chamber formation, reproduction processes, functional morphology and physiology (the algal symbiosis) of the nummulitid Heterostegina depressa. This work was documented by films produced by the Institute for Scientific Film, Göttingen, Germany. These films will be shown at the School on Foraminifera.
