The following non-departmental researchers have agreed to be listed as potential thesis supervisors. You do not need to petition to include these researchers on your thesis committee; and if you have a board member who is asterisked below as an adviser, you do not need to have a departmental faculty co-supervisor. Click each name for the Tutor's research statement. The list will expand as researchers contact us, so re-check periodically.
