Academic Collaborators
     More and more, science is a collaborative undertaking.  This is especially true for those of us in paleontology who do fieldwork; it is impossible to have a productive field program comprised of only one person.  There are many other reasons to collaborate, of course, not the least of which is that having more than one author for a scientific publication often makes for a better product; multiple perspectives catch errors, omissions, and confusing writing much better than one.
     Below is a little information about some of the folks I've collaborated with on various projects including fieldwork, conferences, and scientific publications.  It is a work in progress, and no one has been left out intentionally.
