[Face-research-list] Building bridges

Hi all,

I agree with Isabel. I've already emailed about 20 people not on  
Peter's original list and I think this will rapidly grow to a list  
with, say, 200+ members. So a web page with our profiles would be a  
more feasible way of introducing ourselves, plus would stand as a  
searchable site when we want to see who is doing work on a particular  
topic.

Best,
Elinor
