The April 5 issue of Science has a special section on the sequencing of the rice genome - twice, in fact, by two groups working with two different strains of the plant. I was idly looking at the authors of each - about 70, all Chinese, on one, and 55, from a variety of ethnic backgrounds, on the second. Somehow, the affiliation of <a href="http://www.bryan.edu/" target="_blank">this guy </a>leaped off the page at me. He's at Bryan College in Dayton, Tennessee, home of the Scopes Monkey Trial. According to the website, he must have signed a statement of belief that Genesis is literally true in order to work there.
I'd like to sit in on a couple of his biology classes.......

You must be referring to the baraminologist, Todd Wood. He is listed as a creation scientist at:

<a href="http://www.icr.org/creationscientists.html" target="_blank">Creation Scientists</a>
under biological scientists. If you also search for him at icr, you will find a few articles by him.
