Why Is Judith Willis Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Judith H. Willis is an American biologist currently Professor Emeritus at University of Georgia and fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Her research frequently involved insect cuticular proteins as molecular markers of metamorphic stage, precise role CPs play in constructing insects and annotating the CP genes of Anopheles gambiae, the major vector of malaria.
