How this tree grows

The tree builds itself — one short survey, passed from advisor to student.

01

Fill in your card

Each of Professor Tomizuka's alumni receives a short survey: name, photo, a few lines about yourself, and who your advisor was.

02

Pass it down

Tick "I am a professor" on the survey and your own branch opens — forward the same link to your PhD students and they appear below you, their students after them.

03

The tree updates

This page rebuilds automatically as responses arrive. Photos and profiles replace the dots you see today; new generations unfold outward.
