РОЖДЕНИЯ:

9 апреля 1965 г.
г. Москва

Алексей Шипунов - биолог широкого профиля, в первую очередь - ботаник и педагог, но одновременно крупный специалист по макросистематике всех живых организмов, по биологическим приложениям математики, по разработке компьютерных программ для биологов и по другим аспектам общей биологии. Для посетителей нашего сайта он известен как основатель уникальной электронной библиотеки свободного доступа, где хранятся многие десятки полных копий книг по колеоптерологии, энтомологии и общей зоологии. Вместо рассказа о многогранной научной и преподавательской деятельности Алексея я ограничусь отрывками из его английского CURRICULUM VITAE.

RESEARCH INTERESTS AND ACHIEVEMENTS (исключая сугубо ботанические темы)

Taxonomy databases and other taxonomic Internet resources. Participating in "Encyclopedia of Life" project with the goal to construct unified database for all names of organisms ("Union"). Internet projects on leading Russian botanical "Herba" web-site (http://herba.msu.ru): "Herbarium on-line", "Living plants pictures", "Materials of A. Shipunov", "Materials of the White Sea expedition", "Russian botanical Forum". Constructed the Interactive Web-keys for description of diverse aquatic plants and plantains. Prepared new numeric methods for analysis of stability in classifications. Several ideas about metacharacters and cladogram/hierarchy controversies (e.g., paraphyly) are employing in current research. Textbook for contemporary methods in systematics is published.

Diversity of living organisms, theory of taxonomy. Suggested the original classification of living organisms, based on combined data from many researches (Internet-resource). Textbook is prepared (see below). Taxonomy of anamorphic fungi (especially of order Pleosporales) is studied; numerous new fungal lineages of anamorphic ascomycetes are already discovered via molecular methods, and more than 100 sequences are submitted to GenBank.
