Creation scientist
A contemporary creation scientist is a person who is formally trained in a science discipline, but who approaches a field of study and/or research from the belief that the universe was created by God. Those listed here have at least a Masters degree in a science discipline. Many are actively engaged in research and publish in peer review journals.
