Why Is Frank Udovicic Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Frank Udovicic is an Australian botanist who specialises in molecular systematics and phytogeography. Career Udovicic completed his Bachelor of Science at The University of Melbourne in 1990. In 1995 he completed his PhD at The University of Melbourne. Both his Honours and PhD focused on the molecular phylogeny of the Eucalypts under the supervision of Prof. Pauline Ladiges. Udovicic held a Postdoctoral Fellow position at the CSIRO Plant Industry, Canberra from 1995 to 1997, working on Rhamnaceae. At the conclusion of this post he moved back to Melbourne and took up a Postdoctoral Fellow position at The University of Melbourne until 1999. Udovicic was appointed as the first Molecular Systematist at the Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria in 1999 to set up and manage the Maud Gibson Trust Molecular Laboratory, which enables Herbarium staff and postgraduate students to undertake DNA sequencing and other molecular marker work. Udovicic completed a Diploma of Business in 2003 at Box Hill Institute. Udovicic was successful in gaining the position of Manager in the Research Branch in 2003, a position he still holds today. Some of Udovicic's recent work has been focused on improving the Flora of Victoria website by adding high quality characteristic images eg. flower buds, of common and rare and threatened species. This has been achieved in conjunction with Val Stajsic and Angharad Johnson.
