The lead developer has been Joseph Ramsey (Philosophy, CMU). Recent work has been done under the direction of Greg Cooper (Bioinformatics, University of Pittsburgh) in conjunction with a grant from NIH establishing the Center for Causal Discovery, with additional advice from Kun Zhang (Philosophy, CMU). The team under the NSF grant consisted of J Espino, Kevin Bui, Zhou Yuan, Kong Wongchakprasitti, and Harry Hochheiser. Additional work has been done by Bryan Andrews, Ruben Sanchez, Fattaneh Jabbari, Ricardo Silva, Dan Malinsky, Erich Kummerfeld, Lizzie Silver, Adam Brodie, Biwei Huang, Juan Miguel Ogarrio, David Danks, Kevin Kelly, Eric Strobl, Shyam Visweswaran, Shuyan Wang, Madelyn Glymour, Frank Wimberly, Matt Easterday, Tyler Gibson, Andrew Thompson, Choh-Man Teng, Michael Conrad, and Nick Nystrom. 

Joseph Ramsey, Bryan Andrews, and Kevin Bui have done recent work on the project, along with contributions from wonderful end users.
