Konrad Lakowitz
Konrad Lakowitz (22 June 1859 in Danzig – 20 August 1945 in Berlin) was a German botanist who specialized in phycological research of the Baltic region.
He studied natural sciences, geography and mathematics at the University of Breslau, where he served as an assistant to Heinrich Göppert in its botanical garden. In 1881 he obtained his PhD, and two years later became a probationary teacher in Breslau. From 1886 onward, he worked as a gymnasium teacher in Danzig, attaining the title of professor in 1907. For 25 years he was director of the Westpreußischen Botanisch-Zoologischen Verein (West Prussian Botanical-Zoological Association).[1] In 1918 he became a member of the Deutsche Akademie der Naturforscher Leopoldina (botany section).[2]
