Przemyslaw Prusinkiewicz is a University Professor of Computer Science at the University of Calgary, Canada. He holds M.Sc. and Ph.D. from the Technical University of Warsaw. He is a pioneer of computational modeling, simulation and visualization of plant development. His current research is focused on computational models of development that link molecular-level processes to the macroscopic form of plants. Professor Prusinkiewicz is a recipient of the Association for Computing Machinery SIGGRAPH Achievement Award and the Canadian Human Computer Communications Society Achievement Award. The plant modeling software developed in his lab, the Virtual Laboratory and L-studio, is used worldwide.
