Biography
Dr. Alexander Ivlev received his PhD (1968) at Mendeleev Chemical Technology Institute (Russia) on isotope fractionation studies. After post doctorate studies his interests covered organic geochemistry, biogeochemistry, plant physiology and photosynthesis. Next PhD (1986) he received at Institute of Chemical Physics of Russian Academy of Sciences. In 2005 he was awarded by Medal of Russian Academy of Natural Sciences “To Author of Scientific Discovery” for establishing link between carbon isotope distribution in metabolites and temporal organization of metabolic processes. Keeping on his work in Oil Research Institute in 1995 he became a professor in Russian State Agrarian University. In the University he discovered carbon isotope effect of photorespiration (1993) and oscillatory nature of photosynthesis (2004). Using isotopic technique he and colleagues have suggested oscillatory model of photosynthesis (2008-2012). He is an author of 4 scientific monographs and more than 200 publications.
