Alexander Kovalevsky
Alexander Onufrievich Kovalevsky (russian: Алекса́ндр Ону́фриевич Ковале́вский, 7 November 1840 in Vorkovo, Dvinsky Uyezd, Vitebsk Governorate, Russian Empire – 1901, St. Petersburg, Russian Empire) was a Russian Imperial embryologist, who studied medicine at the University of Heidelberg and became professor at the University of St Petersburg.
