Indeed, his doctoral work at Cambridge involved the kind of problem that occupied Wilson: determining what happens to molten steel as it crystallizes into a solid. Klug soon turned his attention to biological systems, including the oxygen-carrying molecule hemoglobin, and the structure of viruses, those tiny, protein-cloaked bits of genetic material that invade cells. One of his major achievements: developing new techniques of electron microscopy that provide three-dimensional views of the world of biological molecules...

His dyed hair was once described as "limousine black," and now that it has been restored to a steel-gray is the color of the De Lorean itself.
