Lots of great work that pioneered here (I wish the website did a better job showing that?)

e.g., Dr. Brett Seales and his decades of work: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.1601247

Brent is an advisor on the Vesuvius Challenge. He's listed on our website as such but the work we are doing and specifically that which falls under the Vesuvius Challenge is separate from him (apart from his being an advisor), EduceLab lab at U of K, and U of K as a whole. The purpose of the scrollprize website is not to showcase the 25 years of research leading up to the Vesuivus Challenge. It's to showcase what the Vesuivus Challenge is doing.

Granted none of the core team are web developers so updates to the website are best effort.

  • ah cool - thanks for the clarification. some of the comments here read like nothing like this has ever been done before ...
