We would not be able to conduct the science that we do without the support of our friends.  Here, we provide our aknowledgements to our intellectual and research collaborators, our sponsors, and the centers with which we have the pleasure of working.

The views, findings, and  opinions expressed on this website and in our technical publications are those of the Collins research group, and do not necessarily reflect the views and opinions of any of our collaborators, sponsors, and supporters.
