Biskit has originally been developed by Raik Grünberg and Johan Leckner during their time in the group of Michael Nilges at the Pasteur Institute in Paris.

Several people have helped with this project:

• Michael Nilges

• xplor recipies/scripts for PCR and normal MD
• detailed protocol for homology modeling
• many hints and advise...
  

• Michael Habeck & Wolfgang Rieping

• fast rms-fitting (rmsfit.py)
• OO-wrapper around pypvm --> PVMMaster & -Slave class for parallelisation
• PCA in Trajectory.py
• lognormal statistics (Density.py)
• fuzzy clustering implementation
• countless helpful discussions over one or two or three cups of coffee
  

• Olivier Perin
  

• cross-validation (template modeling)  in Biskit/Mod
  
• first parallelisation of homology modeling
  
• help with Biskit/Mod documentation
  

• David Giganti

• alpha-testing of Biskit/Mod
• idea of cross-validation with template modeling

• Peter Schmidtke

• EDParser (parse Electron density maps)

• Victor Gil Sepulveda
