Gordon Hillman - Distinguished Economic Botanist

Gordon is the Society for Economic Botany's Distinguished Economic Botanist for 2004. He received his award at the ISE/SEB conference at the University of Kent at Canterbury, and gave a plenary lecture, on 15 June 2004.

Ehud Weiss and Andy Fairbairn organised an enjoyable one day panel of talks in honour of Gordon. A programme can be found here.

I'm very grateful to Fusun Ertug for these wonderful photos. The resolution should be good enough for printing.
