Projektbeschreibung der*des Nominierenden
| Professor Seymour is an environmental physiologist from the University of Adelaide in South Australia. His research encompasses both animals and plants and focuses on the exchanges between the whole organisms and their environments. Major research areas have changed over time, but can be loosely classified into eight categories: diving physiology of reptiles, hemodynamics and blood pressure regulation, respiratory and cardiovascular physiology of vertebrates, respiration and metabolism of vertebrate embryos, animal energetics, activity and exercise physiology, temperature relations in animals, and heat-producing flowers. He was involved with the first discovery of temperature-regulating flowers, and is currently working on the molecular control mechanism and the ecological significance. With collaboration with Prof. Dr Ingolf Lamprecht (Free University of Berlin) and Prof. Dr Gerhard Gottsberger (University of Ulm), he will be investigating the pollination biology and physiology of thermogenic flowers and their insect visitors at sites around the world. |
