Dr. Max Frei

Dr. Max Frei was a Swiss botanist and cryptologist known for his pioneering work in analyzing pollen (microfossils) to identify geographical origins and environmental changes. His research provided valuable insights into plant distribution and helped solve criminal cases by matching pollen samples. Frei's methods combined botany, geology, and forensic science, and his contributions advanced our understanding of Earth's history and forensic investigations. His work laid foundational techniques for modern palynology (the study of pollen) and forensic science, making him a respected figure in both scientific and investigative communities.
