She is currently the president of the Royal Academy of Exact, Physical and Natural Sciences of Spain, the first woman to hold this position since the founding of that organization in 1847.<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Crespo has worked on the relationship between phenotypic and genomic traits, highlighting the high level of morphological homoplasy in fungi and revealing the common presence of a large number of cryptic species in lichens. He has also contributed to the current evolutionary systematics of fungi, particularly through his contribution to defining the modern concept of genus. He has also worked on the molecular identification of species (animals, plants, and fungi) and collaborated on the design of DNA barcoding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She was President of the Spanish Antarctic Programme Commission from 1988 to 1994; Director General of the Office of the Secretary of State for Universities and Research from 1987 to 1991; Director General of Universities from 1991 to 1993; and General Coordinator of the National Commission for the Evaluation of Research Activity (CNEAI) from 2005 to 2008. Among other honours and distinctions, she has received the Charter 100 Award (2024); a medal from the International Association for Lichenology (2012); the Individual Medal of Honour from the Men\u00e9ndez y Pelayo International University (1993); and was honoured by her peers with the dedication of seven species, one subgenus and one genera, most of them lichens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Her godmother at the ceremony will be the emeritus professor and former rector Marisa Tejedor Salguero.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-column stk-block-column stk-column stk-block stk-25b306a\" data-v=\"4\" data-block-id=\"25b306a\"><style>@media screen and (min-width: 768px){.stk-25b306a {flex:var(--stk-flex-grow, 1) 1 calc(45% - var(--stk-column-gap, 0px) * 1 \/ 2 ) !important;}}<\/style><div class=\"stk-column-wrapper stk-block-column__content stk-container stk-25b306a-container stk--no-background stk--no-padding\"><div class=\"stk-block-content stk-inner-blocks stk-25b306a-inner-blocks\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-spacer stk-block-spacer stk--no-padding stk-block stk-27392cb\" data-block-id=\"27392cb\"><style>.stk-27392cb {height:180px !important;}<\/style><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-heading stk-block-heading stk-block-heading--v2 stk-block stk-85a5815 stk-block-background\" id=\"a-href-https-www-ull-es-la-universidad-honoris-causa-2025-ana-maria-crespo-laudatio-ana-maria-crespo-span-style-color-ffffff-class-stk-highlight-laudatio-span-a\" data-block-id=\"85a5815\"><style>.stk-85a5815 {background-color:#ffc100 !important;padding-top:2% !important;padding-bottom:2% !important;margin-bottom:50px !important;}.stk-85a5815:before{background-color:#ffc100 !important;}.stk-85a5815 .stk-block-heading__text{color:#ffffff !important;font-weight:700 !important;}<\/style><h2 class=\"stk-block-heading__text has-text-color has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ull.es\/la-universidad\/honoris-causa-2025\/ana-maria-crespo\/laudatio-ana-maria-crespo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\" class=\"stk-highlight\">LAUDATIO<\/span><\/a><\/h2><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-heading stk-block-heading stk-block-heading--v2 stk-block stk-873311a stk-block-background\" id=\"span-style-color-ffffff-class-stk-highlight-a-href-https-drive-google-com-file-d-1-fgh-iswv-hk-jy-ci-dl-nkgw-tx-fg-b-nxt-ah-e-view-usp-sharing-data-type-link-data-id-https-drive-google-com-file-d-1-fgh-iswv-hk-jy-ci-dl-nkgw-tx-fg-b-nxt-ah-e-view-usp-sharing-target-blank-rel-noreferrer-noopener-discurso-de-ingreso-a-span\" data-block-id=\"873311a\"><style>.stk-873311a {background-color:#5c068c !important;padding-top:3% !important;padding-bottom:2% !important;margin-bottom:35px !important;}.stk-873311a:before{background-color:#5c068c !important;}.stk-873311a .stk-block-heading__text{font-weight:700 !important;}<\/style><h2 class=\"stk-block-heading__text has-text-align-center\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\" class=\"stk-highlight\"><a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1FGH-iswvHK-jyCiDLNkgwTxFgBNxtAhE\/view?usp=sharing\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1FGH-iswvHK-jyCiDLNkgwTxFgBNxtAhE\/view?usp=sharing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">INDUCTION SPEECH<\/a><\/span><\/h2><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-text stk-block-text stk-block stk-fa5ad2a\" data-block-id=\"fa5ad2a\"><style>.stk-fa5ad2a {margin-bottom:50px !important;}.stk-fa5ad2a .stk-block-text__text{font-size:20px !important;}@media screen and (max-width: 1023px){.stk-fa5ad2a .stk-block-text__text{font-size:20px !important;}}<\/style><p class=\"stk-block-text__text has-text-align-center\"><\/p><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-image stk-block-image stk-block stk-d1d7398\" data-block-id=\"d1d7398\"><style>.stk-d1d7398 .stk-img-wrapper{width:80% !important;}<\/style><figure><span class=\"stk-img-wrapper stk-image--shape-stretch\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"stk-img wp-image-17243\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ull.es\/la-universidad\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/01\/Mockup-web-honoris-causa_Iconos.png\" width=\"276\" height=\"276\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ull.es\/la-universidad\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/01\/Mockup-web-honoris-causa_Iconos.png 276w, https:\/\/www.ull.es\/la-universidad\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/01\/Mockup-web-honoris-causa_Iconos-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.ull.es\/la-universidad\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/01\/Mockup-web-honoris-causa_Iconos-50x50.png 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 276px) 100vw, 276px\" \/><\/span><\/figure><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ana Mar\u00eda Crespo de las Casas (born 30 March 1948 in Santa Cruz de Tenerife) is a Spanish biologist with a PhD in Biological Sciences from the Complutense University of Madrid (UCM), where she held a professorship in 1983 and an emeritus professorship in 2018.
