Why Is Silvia Pressel Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Silvia Pressel is a botanist and head of the LS Algae, Fungi and Plants Division of the Natural History Museum, London. She is a joint recipient of the Linnean Society's 2008 Irene Manton Prize for the "best thesis in botany examined for a doctorate of philosophy during a single academic year" in the United Kingdom. She completed her PhD, Experimental studies of bryophyte cell biology, conservation, physiology and systematics, at Queen Mary University of London in 2007.
