(Suggest an Edit or Addition)

According to Wikipedia, Sir Brian Keith Follett is a British biologist, academic administrator, and policy maker. His research focused upon how the environment, particularly the annual change in day-length , controls breeding in birds and mammals. Knighted in 1992, he won the Frink Medal and has been a Fellow of the Royal Society since 1984, and served as the chair of the UK government's teacher training agency and Arts and Humanities Research Council, and was Vice-Chancellor of University of Warwick.
