Lesley Walls is a Professor in the Department of Management Science at the University of Strathclyde, a Chartered Statistician and a Fellow of the UK Safety and Reliability Society. Her research interests include reliability modelling and risk analysis. Her work spans statistical methodology development and industry-facing applications. Lesley has been an Associate Editor of IEEE Transactions on Reliability and is a project leader for standards developed by the International Electrotechnical Committee on Dependability (IEC TC56).

Matthew Revie is a Senior Knowledge Exchange Fellow at the University of Strathclyde. His research interests include reliability, availability and maintainability modelling, expert judgement and decision analysis. He has worked on over 25 applied research projects with more than 15 different organisations and has co-founded two industry facing research units. Matthew is on the editorial board of the IMechE Journal of Risk and Reliability, on the Board of Directors for the European Safety and Reliability Data Association, and a Fellow of the Operational Research Society.

Tim Bedford is Professor of Management Science and Associate Deputy Principal (Knowledge Exchange) at the University of Strathclyde. His research aims at combining fundamental theoretical advances - particularly around probability and consequence modelling - with applications to real-life problems. He holds an Honorary Doctorate in recognition of his work in risk analysis, from the Faculté Polytechnique de Mons, and has recently been elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, Scotland's National Academy. Tim is a Fellow of the UK Safety and Reliability Society, a Fellow of the Institute for Mathematics and its Applications, and a member of the Editorial Board of Reliability Engineering and System Safety.
