What Makes a Mature Science

Codon

We need to help the Spinozas of bioinformatics grind out new lenses. Beyond better tooling, biology would benefit greatly from more efforts to find true organizing principles and patterns. We’ve known about base pairs, RNA, and DNA for decades, but we couldn't make full use of them because our tools were so poor.

Code breaking and the Human Genome Project

The Open Targets Blog

Each Christmas presented the opportunity for the leaders to make fools of themselves in the annual pantomime, a tradition which we had inherited from the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology (LMB) in Cambridge and perhaps from earlier scientists who had known ENSA during service in the War. Comput Appl Biosci 13, 523–535 (1997).
