<td>The University of Edinburgh has been an important institution in the field of <i>Fire Safety Engineering</i> for four decades. Many of those who are now leaders in the field came to Edinburgh to study and research under the supervision of the late <b>Prof David Rasbash</b>, one of the main pioneers of the discipline, and <a href="http://www.eng.ed.ac.uk/fire/staff-dougal.html" class="navlinktextnopad"><b>Prof Dougal Drysdale</b></a>, author of the definitive text book on the subject, <i>'Introduction to Fire Dynamics'</i> (Wiley, 3rd edition 2011) and <a href="http://www.eng.ed.ac.uk/fire/staff-jose.html" class="navlinktextnopad"><b>Prof Jose Torero</b></a> who was, until recently, the BRE/RAE Chair in Fire Safety Engineering. Teaching and research in fire safety continues at Edinburgh under the leadership of <a href="http://www.eng.ed.ac.uk/fire/staff-albert.html" class="navlinktextnopad"><b>Prof Albert Simeoni</b></a>, who joined us in July 2013.</P>
