Jump to
Cresswell Shearer, FRS (24 May 1874 – 6 February 1941), was a British zoologist and Cambridge lecturer in Experimental Embryology, where he motivated his students to develop a keen interest in hands-on research, inviting them to practical marine research experience at Plymouth Laboratory of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom during the summer months. It is also where he and Dorothy J Lloyd worked as early pioneers on how to rear parthenogenetic sea-urchin larvae through metamorphosis. He also conducted research there with Harold Munro Fox and Walter de Morgan on the genetics of sea urchin hybrids.
