Stout, Daniel
Daniel M. Stout II has been associated with residential pesticides for over 20 years. His primary interests are in the fate and transport of residentially applied pesticides and the potential for human exposure. In addition Dr. Stout has background in the development of measurement techniques for human exposure studies and has conducted numerous field measurement studies.

Peterson, Chris
Chris J. Peterson is a research entomologist with the USDA Forest Service working on termite toxicology and the longevity of termiticide treatments. Previous research includes work on natural products, most notably the use of catnip oil as an insect repellent.
