Lee Riddle - Secretary Living on the South coast of Oregon, Lee is employed in agricultural research. His education is in Horticulture, Agriculture, Chemistry, and Botany "In early 1999 I became aware of the changing sky environment. I quickly became aware of Clifford Carnicoms website that sought to explain the changes I was seeing. Clifford has always been cutting edge in developing methods to study these changes and I support the formation of this Institute as a means to expand this work. By pulling together we can get much more done with higher powered tools than one person can do alone."

Larry Meyer - Research Associate Graduate Professional Gemologist and Research Associate Larry V. Meyer has been documenting the nature of peculiar materials thought to be associated with what has been termed the Morgellons Condition. First observed in late 1998 as contaminants adhering to Diamond gemstones during the clarity grading process, it was soon learned that this unusual "fibril" artifact was being found over a five Western States area. Soon it would be reported from all corners of the US. This mysterious material and other recently found artifacts are the subject of increasing concern among those involved in research into the etiology of the Morgellons Condition as similar fibrils are often produced in the lesions of patients. Specimens collected by Larry have been shared with medical professionals and researchers at Universities and Forensics Laboratories at several locations. Carnicom Institute's Clifford C. Carnicom has carried the research on these materials to a new level and visitors to this site are encouraged to read his professional papers for the latest findings.
