The really fascinating thing about research is the new science, but to get to it, you have to get past that first level.
The virtues of science are skepticism and independence of thought.
This last discovery illuminated the mechanism of protein synthesis: the protein chain is transferred in turn from one amino-acid-bearing transfer RNA to another as it grows, their order dictated by messenger RNA and ultimately by the genetic code on the DNA.
To construct something as complicated as our bodies, we turn on different genes in muscles, skin, and so on to structure them.
Today we try to identify a gene and then study its properties.
We are embedded in a biological world and related to the organisms around us.
We can learn about the pattern of evolution by looking at the structure of genes and comparing the structure of proteins.
We haven't been able yet to determine in terms of genes what makes a human being a human and not another mammal.
We know specific genes are turned on in specific cells, but we don't know to what extent this happens.
Why do we do basic research? To learn about ourselves.
With everything I do, I am well advised to repeat the experiment I'm starting from.
