Yves PedrazziniDétenteur d'un doctorat ès sciences (section architecture) et d'une licence en sociologie, Yves Pedrazzini est Maître d'Enseignement et de Recherche (MER / Senior Scientist) au Laboratoire de sociologie urbaine (LASUR) et chargé de cours de la section d'architecture de l'Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne. Depuis plus de 30 ans, il analyse les dynamiques urbaines, les pratiques spatiales, les cultures urbaines -dont le hip hop et les sports de rue tel que le basket de playground et le skateboard-, les phénomènes de violence et d'insécurité, dans les pays du Sud et du Nord. Dès 1987, il mène des recherches ethnographiques sur les mutations des grandes villes dAmérique latine, plus spécialement les gangs de jeunes des bidonvilles de Caracas, Bogota ou San Salvador. A cette fin, il a développé des méthodes qualitatives novatrices, s'inspirant des recherches-actions participatives qui situent l'acteur social au centre du dispositif d'observation. En 1994, Yves Pedrazzini obtient le titre de docteur ès sciences de l'EPFL. A partir de 1997, il ajoute à son expérience urbaine latino-américaine (Brésil, Bolivie, Colombie, Cuba, El Salvador, Mexique, Venezuela) une nouvelle expertise africaine (Sénégal, Ethiopie), puis l'Asie (Pakistan, Népal, Inde...) et la Chine, à partir de 2000, enfin la Palestine, le Liban... Depuis lors, Yves Pedrazzini dirige des projets de recherche internationale en partenariat avec des chercheurs (latino-)américains et africains. Il a publié de nombreux livres et articles sur les thématiques urbaines, notamment les violences urbaines et les cultures de rue, d'un point de vue théorique et méthodologique. A partir de cette expérience de terrain, il a entrepris la relation d'une "histoire secrète" de l'urbanisme, celle des bidonvilles, des résistances d'habitants ordinaires à la violence de l'urbanisation et de la planification urbaine, l'urbanisme des barricades contre celui d'Haussmann. Cette histoire est aussi celle des mémoires collectives populaire, résistant à leur effacement. S'en est suivi dès 2015, la création du collectif d'urbanistes "ARCHITECTURE & RÉSISTANCE", en Espagne, Suisse et Venezuela. Enfin, en essayant d'assembler les enseignements de tous ces projets, Pedrazzini mène un projet sans fin d'identification de la nouvelle matière sociale et spatiale de la ville contemporaine, une narration qu'il désigne désormais sous le nom de PUNKSPACE.

Pierre MagistrettiPierre J. Magistretti is an internationally-recognized neuroscientist who has made significant contributions in the field of brain energy metabolism. His group has discovered some of the cellular and molecular mechanisms that underlie the coupling between neuronal activity and energy consumption by the brain.
This work has considerable ramifications for the understanding of the origin of the signals detected with the current functional brain imaging techniques used in neurological and psychiatric research (see for example Magistretti et al, Science, 283: 496 497, 1999). He is the author of over 100 articles published in peer-reviewed journals.
He has given over 80 invited lectures at international meetings or at universities in Europe and North America, including the 2000 Talairach Lecture at the Functional Mapping of the Human Brain Conference. In November 2000 he has been a Mc Donnel Visiting Scholar at Washington University School of Medicine.
Pierre J. Magistretti is the President-Elect (2002 2004) of the Federation of European Neuroscience Societies (FENS) which has a membership of over 15000 European neuroscientists. He has been first president of the Swiss Society for Neuroscience (1997-1999) and the first Chairman of the Department of Neurosciences of the University of Lausanne (1996 1998).
Pierre J. Magistretti is Professor of Physiology (since 1988) at the University of Lausanne Medical School. He has been Vice-Dean of the University of Lausanne Medical School from 1996 to 2000. Pierre Magistretti, is Director of the Brain Mind Institute at EPFL and Director of the Center for Psychiatric Neuroscience of the University of Lausanne and CHUV. He is also Director of the NCCR SYNAPSY "the synaptic bases of mental diseases".
