Rüdiger Kilian joined the MTEX team in 2008 as a PhD student of Rene Heilbronner, Basel. Since than he answered hundreds of questions in the MTEX forum. Rüdiger spends much afford in continuously improving the EBSD and grain analysis functionalities in MTEX.
David Mainprice joined the MTEX team in 2009 by sharing his code on tensorial properties and seismic velocities. Since than he is continuously working on promoting MTEX to the world of geologists.
Luiz Fernando Grafhula Morales is a structural geologist, electron microscopist and long time Mtex user. He helps with the implementation of physical properties, user support and workshops.

Tuomo Nyyssoenen worked on parent austenite reconstruction during his PhD at Tampere University of Technology. He wrote the initial MTEX code for the reconstruction of parent grain structures and the determination of the parent to child orientation relationship.
Frank Niessen generalized and optimized the orientation relationship analysis and parent grain reconstruction algorithm in towards arbitrary phase combinations. He is also the author of export functions for ctf and ang files.

Azdiar Gazder worked on the orientation relationship analysis and parent grain reconstruction algorithms for arbitrary phase combinations. He is the co-developer of the ORTools and phaseSegmenter toolboxes and author of the mtexTools toolbox.
Felix Bartel worked on MTEX during his master thesis at the TU Chemnitz in 2019. He wrote the code for spherical function classes.
Erik Wünsche worked on MTEX during his Phd thesis at the TU Freiberg in 2022. He wrote the code for classes of functions on the rotation group.
