According to Wikipedia, Betty Ida Roots was a British-born zoologist based at the University of Toronto in Canada. She was an elected fellow of the Royal Society of Canada. Career In 1927, Roots was born in South Croydon Surrey, England, in the UK. She completed a Bachelor of Science degree in zoology at the University of London's University College , a Diploma in Education at the Institution of Education . and later, a doctorate in comparative physiology at the University of London . Roots held a number of teaching and visiting scientist positions at a variety of institutions, including the Royal Free Hospital School of Medicine and the University of Illinois' Department of Physiology and Biophysics, before immigrating to Canada and joining the University of Toronto as an Associate Professor of Zoology in 1969.
