Why there are no email addresses here
Most of these people publish an institutional address somewhere, and reproducing it on a page like this is how those addresses end up scraped. Every entry links to the person’s own group page instead, so contact happens through the route they chose. If you are listed and would rather not be, the form on your page reaches a person and the entry comes down.
