It is true that Summers’ public remarks on sciences, from his inaugural address to his speech at the announcement of the Broad Institute (a collaborative genomics project involving Harvard, MIT and the Whitehead Institute), have largely focused on molecular rather than evolutionary and whole-animal or plant biology. The thrust of the preliminary Allston plans, moreover, would support the belief that medicine and biotechnology are where Summers sees the University’s future...
