Guidelines: Make sure the expert is available and interested in answering by the due date. Fill out the linked form to express interest. If you get a spot, wait for confirmation before answering the questions and email them to [email redacted] in a separate email thread. If you mention a study or say “research,” please link it. EOD for me means 11:59pm, but the earlier the better. Don’t use AI to generate your answers.
