The primary function of the Senior Curators is to moderate the content of CAZypedia. Some specific duties of the Senior Curators are to:
- identify new Page Curators and contributing authors based upon expertise in the research field.

The Board of Curators will serve as the ultimate authority regarding the form, content, and scope of CAZypedia and reserves the right to exert final editorial control over all contributions.
Page Curators

These persons are the primary contact point for any questions or comments on page content. Page Curators have the primary responsibility for selecting Page Authors and reviewing author contributions.
