People
Ask A Biologist would not be possible without the faculty and graduate students that volunteer their time to answer questions, help with backyard experiments, and research topics. Ask A Biologist was created by, and continues to be developed and coordinated by CJ Kazilek (a.k.a. Dr. Biology). In addition, for their help in building this site there are a few other people past and present that we would like to acknowledge.
