Professor Geoffrey Codd, PhD, FRSE,MBE is EmeritusProfessor of Microbiology at the University of Dundee
and Honorary Professor at the University of Stirling,
Scotland.
Geoffrey is a former pupil of Barton-on-Humber
Grammar School and visits us to give his talk entitled
Dinosaur deaths, historical and recent examples of
animal and human poisonings and the risk management
of toxin-producing cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) in
our water resources.
During a 40-year university career Professor Codd has
investigated the global occurrence of cyanobacterial
blooms in waterbodies. His investigations included
museum materials to provide a longer insight into the
occurrence of the toxins.
Professor Codd has been a member of several national
and international working parties on cyanotoxins,
including the World Health Organisation and UNESCO.
This is a unique opportunity for us into the forefront of
knowledge and research that helps to keep water supplies
safe and enable co-operation around the world on this
essential need for all life.
