Mutations in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes are linked to hereditary breast, ovarian and prostate cancers
Ranging widely over the biological landscape, Crick helped explain how genes build proteins. With a colleague, Leslie Orgel, he speculated on the origins of life, concluding that it began not on Earth but elsewhere in the universe. And for the past two decades, Crick has been pursuing that most baffling...
The scientifically inclined son of middle-class parents from Britain's Midlands--his father was a shoe manufacturer--Crick started out studying physics and during World War II worked on radar and magnetic mines. But like Watson, he switched fields after reading Erwin Schrodinger's What Is Life? After their...
One of the most far-reaching developments will be the discovery of the genes that cause us to age. Once we understand those genes, we will be able to counteract them. Then we will slow down the aging process dramatically. My great-grandchildren might live to 150 and not look...
Fifteen years ago, I WOULD have put limits on what we would ever be able to do to alter our genes. Now I believe there are no limits--no technical limits anyway. Within the next half-century, and probably much sooner, we will have a complete understanding of what every...
