Peter F. C. Gilbert

Peter Francis Cecil Gilbert (born 7 July 1944) is an English neuroscientist and biophysicist. He is known for his pioneering work on motor learning in the cerebellum.
==Early life and education==
Gilbert was educated at the Royal Grammar School, Newcastle upon Tyne. He went on to attend Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge on a college scholarship, graduating in 1966 with a degree in natural sciences. Remaining in Cambridge, he pursued a PhD at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology, under the supervision of Aaron Klug, researching the structure of tobacco mosaic virus protein.
==Career and research==
Upon finishing his PhD in 1970, Gilbert continued his research at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology as a staff scientist. During this time, Gilbert developed Simultaneous Iterative Reconstruction Technique (SIRT) – an iterative method for reconstructing the three-dimensional structure of objects from two-dimensional projections. The original SIRT, as proposed by Gilbert, along with the family of variants that it spawned (known as SIRT-like), have widespread applications across medicine and biology such as CT scans and cryo-EM.
In 1974, Gilbert moved into the field of neuroscience, joining the laboratory of Sir John Eccles at the State University of New York, Buffalo as a visiting professor, where he investigated the neurophysiology of the monkey cerebellum. Towards the end of 1974 and after completing his work in the Eccles laboratory, Gilbert partnered with Dr W.T. Thach at Yale University. Over the next two years, at Yale and, later, at Washington University in St. Louis, the pair carried out pioneering work on cerebellar motor learning. By recording from the Purkinje cells of conscious monkeys learning a manual task, Gilbert and Thach tested and confirmed theoretical predictions on motor learning in the cerebellum.
Besides his experimental work, Gilbert has produced a number of theories on cerebellar motor learning and has published his theories in Nature and other journals. Since 2000, he has expanded his focus from the cerebellum to the entire brain; he is currently devoting his time to producing a unifying theory of brain function.
== Personal life ==
Gilbert is the great-grandson of Sir Alfred Gilbert, the foremost member of the New Sculpture movement, and the nephew of Stephen Gilbert. He married twice and has four children.

Peter Gacs

Péter GÁCS is a Hungarian-American mathematician and computer scientists, professor, and an external member of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. 
He is well known for his work in reliable computation, randomness in computing, algorithmic complexity, algorithmic probability, and information theory.
Peter Gacs attended a gymnasium in his hometown, then obtained a diploma (M.S.) at Loránd Eötvös University of Science in 1970.
Gacs started his career as a researcher at the Alfréd Rényi Institute of Applied Mathematics Institute of the Hungarian Academy of Science working under the supervision 
of Alfred Renyi himself. He obtained his doctoral degree from the Goethe University Frankfurt. Throughout his studies he had the opportunity to visit Moscow State University and work with Andrey Kolmogorov. In 1979 he moved to Stanford University. He was an assistant professor at University of Rochester from 1980 until 1984 when he moved to Boston University where he got tenured in 1992. 
Gacs has made contributions in many fields of computer science. It was Gács and László Lovász who first brought ellipsoid method to the attention of the international community in August 1979.
Gacs also gave contribution in the Sipser–Lautemann theorem and many other fields of computer science and mathematics. However his main contribution and research focus were centered on cellular automata and Kolmogorov complexity. 
=== Work on cellular automata === 
His most important contribution in the domain of cellular automata besides the GKL rule (Gacs-Kurdiomov- Levin rule) is the construction of a reliable one-dimensional cellular automaton presenting thus a counterexample to the Positive rates conjecture. 
The construction that he offered is multi-scale and complex. The technique that he used and the entire construction is explained by Lawrence Grey in an exposition paper and later was used for the construction of aperiodic tiling set. 
=== Work on algorithmic information theory and Kolmogorov complexity === 
At the early stages of algorithmic information theory, Gacs gave important contributions to this field tackling the symmetry of algorithmic information P. Gács, “On the symmetry of algorithmic information”, Dokl. Akad. Nauk SSSR, 218:6 (1974), 1265–1267 and the differences between common and mutual information Gács, Peter, and János Körner. "Common information is far less than mutual information." Problems of Control and Information Theory 2.2 (1973): 149-162. Together with Rudolf Ahlswede and János Körner he proved the blowing-up lemma Ahlswede, Gacs, Körner Bounds on conditional probabilities with applications in multiuser communication, Z. Wahrsch. und Verw. Gebiete 34, 1976, 157–177.
