Dean Bennett is overseeing one of Chicago's main gambles-that science in the next 20 years will grow fastest in biology. Geneticist Beadle, who won his Nobel in medicine and physiology, is fascinated with how the brain stores and releases knowledge. "Is there a molecular coding system as in genetics? If we just knew what goes on here," he says, tapping his head, "think of the problems we could solve in society, in education...
...Radcliffe Houses pose a more profound threat to the Harvard system by an essentially pluralistic approach. Harvard has discouraged all competition and differentiation among Houses; Radcliffe, like M.I.T., allows each dorm, to set its own parietial rules. Mrs. Bunting has affirmed her belief in competition, a geneticist's faith in separate evolution; Harvard refers such profound matters as wearing Bermuda shorts in dining halls to the Committee of Masters...
...sciences, Clarke, who is Marine Biologist at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, is studying the processes and activities of marine life, especially plankton. Levine, a geneticist, is the author of Genetics, a widely-used college text...
...State can use the bionucleonic lab at Purdue. Physics students will gain access to the biotron at Wisconsin. Besides specialized schools and equipment, students will be able to seek out star scholars-Iowa's Space Scientist James Van Allen, Illinois' Nobel Physicist John Bardeen, Indiana's Geneticist Hermann Muller...
...inducing viruses, but that in the appropriate host and in the appropriate circumstances perhaps any virus can invade the chromosomes of a cell and start the process of abnormal reproduction which we call cancer. A bit of evidence in support of this view came from Sweden's famed Geneticist Albert Levan. He has found breaks or changes in the chromosomes of children recover ing from measles. Though he still has no proof that such changes lead to cancer in later life. Dr. Levan is checking the effects of other common viruses...
