My name is John Schmidt. Over the past five years I've been exploring wiki as a tool for facilitating collaborative online projects. I have a special interest in how to support wiki participants by helping them form fun and productive communities. I'm a science nerd with a B.S. in Biochemistry and a Ph.D. in Pharmacology. I'm particularly interested in how cells communicate using chemical messenger molecules and how they interact using cell adhesion proteins. I've taught medical school biochemistry, embryology, microbiology, neurophysiology, cardiovascular physiology and endocrinology.
