Robert Carroll
Dr Carroll鈥檚 dedication to the Redpath Museum and 缅北强奸 commenced when he completed his postdoctoral studies in 1962-1963 as a NRC Postdoctoral Fellow. In the 1970s, he kept the Museum from being sacrificed during an economic crisis and sired most of the Canadian Vertebrate Palaeontology community. Carroll鈥檚 immeasurable contribution to the palaeontology community has resulted in a critical mass of support and the discipline鈥檚 own society and journal.
To know more about Dr Carroll鈥檚 life and work, please see the following academic obituary written by Michael W. Caldwell (Department of Biological Sciences, University of Alberta) and Hans C.E Larsson (Redpath Museum, 缅北强奸) which can also be found in the Vertebrate Anatomy Morphology Palaeontology 8:1-6.

INFO about Bronwyn鈥檚 tree: Amelanchier laevis, commonly known as the Shadbush, Smooth Serviceberry, or Indian Pear, likes to grow in slightly shaded areas. Bronwyn liked it because it is one of the earliest native trees to produce fruit.聽 As she said in her article about this species:聽 鈥渙ne of the advantages of the serviceberry is that is a small tree, making the fruit easy to pick. A sweet city is a city, which in my books, has fruit for the picking!"
