CETI Researchers
- Frank Drake (SETI Institute): SETI pioneer, composed the Arecibo message with Carl Sagan
- Dr John Elliott (SETI Research UK): research into developing strategies, which are based on receiving a 'natural' language message, that look at developing algorithms to detect if an ET signal has intelligent-like structure and if so, then how to decipher its content. Author of many papers in this area and a contributor to SETI's book on interstellar communication. Other contributions include message design and construction; member of: International Academy of Astronautics, SETI Permanent Study Group; International Task Group for the Post-detection identification of unknown radio signals.
- Laurence Doyle (SETI Institute): studies animal communication, and has developed statistical measures of complexity in animal utterances as well as human language.
- Stephane Dumas: developed Cosmic Call messages, as well as a general technique for generating 2-D symbols that remain recognizable even if corrupted by noise.
- Yvan Dutil: developed Cosmic Call messages with Stephane Dumas.
- Paul Fitzpatrick (MIT): developed CosmicOS system based on lambda calculus
- Brian McConnell: developed framework for algorithmic communication systems (ACETI) from 2000-2002.
- Marvin Minsky (MIT AI researcher): first proposed the idea of including algorithms within an interstellar message.
- Carl Sagan (deceased): co-authored the Arecibo message, and was heavily involved in SETI throughout his life.
- Douglas Vakoch (SETI Institute): studies CETI and has published numerous articles, as well as an upcoming book from MIT Press about interstellar communication.
- Alexander Zaitsev (IRE, Russia): composed Teen Age Message with Boris Pshenichner, Lev Gindilis, Lilia Filippova, et al., composed Bilingual Image Glossary for Cosmic Call 2003 Message, Scientific Manager of transmitting from Evpatoria Planetary Radar the Cosmic Call 1999, the Teen Age Message 2001, and the Cosmic Call 2003, Scientific consultant for A Message From Earth project.

Famous quotes containing the word researchers:
“When men and women across the country reported how happy they felt, researchers found that jugglers were happier than others. By and large, the more roles, the greater the happiness. Parents were happier than nonparents, and workers were happier than nonworkers. Married people were much happier than unmarried people. Married people were generally at the top of the emotional totem pole.”
—Faye J. Crosby (20th century)
