Nils Conrad Kindberg

Nils Conrad Kindberg (7 August 1832 in Karlstad – 23 August 1910 in Uppsala) was a Swedish bryologist.

Nils Conrad Kindberg

From 1849 he studied at Uppsala University, earning his PhD in 1857. In 1859 he worked as a teacher in Vänersborg, then from 1860 to 1901 taught classes in natural sciences and mathematics in Linköping.[1][2]

The moss genus Kindbergia (family Brachytheciaceae) is named in his honor.[3]

gollark: The gas dwarf? Why? Solar panels work better closer in, and we're on... Bradbury, right?
gollark: I'm sure the other probe AIs could be interested in collaborating on large-scale power generation.
gollark: If we generate power via said solar arrays, and beam it with lasers, we can also conveniently make that giant laser array Earth wanted.
gollark: We could construct a bunch of solar arrays in a lower stellar orbit and do power beaming. We have decent power beaming technology, right?
gollark: Hmm, actually, how many research forks can we make? Do we need to build labs or something?
