John Gurdon en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Gu..., beacon of a generation that tackled head on the deepest question of biology: the development of an organism. The best tribute to him and his peers should be to remember and follow the path they forged for how to do Science in form and content.
Can anybody tell us, what this all will mean for research at universities? There are two pillars of scientific innovation in our society: industry and universities. Each should be allowed to play at their strengths to have maximal gain. We lose this perspective!
