Why Is Barrie Frost Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Barrie James Frost was a New Zealand-born Canadian psychologist and neuroscientist. Born in Nelson, New Zealand, Frost was educated at Nelson College from 1953 to 1956. He initially trained as a primary school teacher, and then earned his bachelor's and master's degrees from the University of Canterbury, followed by a PhD from Dalhousie University in 1967. Frost then taught at Queen's University at Kingston. Over the course of his career, Frost was granted fellowship into the Royal Society of Canada, the Canadian Psychological Association, the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and the Royal Physiographic Society in Lund, and received a Humboldt Research Award. Frost died of cancer at the Providence Care Hospital in Kingston, Ontario on 4 October 2018, aged 79.
