* '''Morten Frisch''', {{MD}}, {{PhD}}, {{DSc}} (Med), is a full-time re-searcher at Statens Serum Institut in Copenhagen and an adjunct professor of sexual health epidemiology at {{UNI|Aalborg University|AAU}}, [[Denmark]]. For more than 20 years, he has studied sexual risk factors for and correlates of chronic diseases, as well as sociodemographic, health-related, and lifestyle-related determinants of sexual health and ill-health. In 2011, Frisch and co-authors published a study in the ''International Journal of Epidemiology'' showing a statistically significant excess of sexual problems in circumcised men and their spouses. That study has obtained substantial international attention and was the most heavily debated scientific study during the heated circumcision debate in [[Denmark]] in the summer of 2012. Copenhagen, [[Denmark]].
* '''[[John Geisheker]]''', {{JD}}, LLM, a native of New Zealand, is the Executive Director of [[Doctors Opposing Circumcision]] (D.O.C.)]], an international non-profit organization based in Seattle, {{USSC|WA}}. As Director of D.O.C., he appears at medical and childbirth conventions, as well as educational institutions, presenting on the medical science, bioethics, and legality of merely cultural, non-therapeutic infant genital surgeries. He is the author of numerous publications on the subject. Mr. Geisheker has been a litigator, law lecturer, arbitrator, and mediator, specializing in medical disputes, for 30 years. He is proud that, in the 1960s, his native [[New Zealand]] fully abandoned medicalized infant circumcision as unnecessary-with no detectable loss of child health. Seattle, {{USSC|WA}}, USA.
