The current version of the MBB page was produced by Judy Kolva and modified by Pam Woronov. I am continuing to provide content and maintenance as is Dr. Andrew Vershon. . Our most recent trip was to France (June 2004). Here are some pictures from Arles and nearby Provence. In my spare time I've been fooling around with Java Clocks . I've also been working on a couple of wine lectures . In late August of 2002 I attended my 40th Hampton High School Reunion . I am compiling pictures of Hampton, pictures of people, and relevant URL's. Take a look. And here is a "handout" on how to make Chain Mail! . In Sept 2001 we went down to Philadelphia for a great dinner and good wines (amarone, barbaresco, and vin santo among others) at our friends Larry and Susan's house. Here are some pictures This is the book I helped write. The 5th Edition of Stryer (with new co-authors Tymoczko and Berg) came out in December 2001. Our Companion volume was published in June 2002.

UNSW Embryology Development History Acknowledgements Introduction These notes are intended to give some historic background to Embryology. Historically, say pre-20th century, Embryology was not easily separated from Medicine, Anatomy and Physiology and other biological sciences. I have also divided, for brevity, into pre-20th century, pre-molecular (lets call it 70's) and the current molecular embryology. Much of the modern history of Medicine/Embryology is documented in the Nobel Prizes for Medicine . There are either text extracts included or links to external texts or references in these notes. There is also a page briefly identifying historic researchers in embryology Also see WWW Links to other History of Medicine Resources, particularly Dr. Ian Carr's brief paper on The History of Childbirth , and Neonatology on the Web has a long list of historic Classic Papers in Neonatal Medicine Reading Most Textbooks include Embryology Historic issues in the preface, opening chapter or within each chapter as a special section or highlighted text box. Therefore no specific chapter or page reference is shown for the texts below.

At the time it didn’t garner much attention. No one knew what to do next. It was like discovering that a car is made of steel and uses petrol – it didn’t tell us anything about how the motor actually worked. Watson and Crick showed us that DNA is a double helix with a series of chemical groups that carry the genetic code – identified by the letters A T C G – hence the name of the film GATTACA H.

Front Page Previous Story Next Story Nobelist, Co-Discoverer of 'Blueprint' Gene s Long-Time NICHD Grantee Lewis Dies By Robert Bock Dr. Edward B. Lewis, a long-time NICHD grantee who received the Nobel Prize for discovering the genes that serve as "blueprints" for the formation of limbs and organs in the early embryo, died recently of cancer at age 86. His contributions came from studying the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster , an important research model in the field of genetics. He was a 32-year recipient of NICHD support. "Edward Lewis moved the study of human development a giant step forward," said NICHD director Dr. Duane Alexander. "His work opened a new field of inquiry into the genetic mechanisms underlying many classes of birth defects." Dr. Edward B. Lewis Lewis made his discoveries long before the tools of molecular biology had become available. He identified a mutant fruit fly with two sets of wings, instead of the normal single set, and demonstrated that the genetic defect caused the abnormality. Through the years, Lewis isolated other mutants, eventually mapping genes controlling such traits as eye and limb development to specific locations on the third chromosome. These genes were later named "homeotic selector genes," from the Greek word "homeos," meaning "likeness." He determined that these genes appear on the chromosome in an order corresponding to the position of the body parts they control. In 1995, Lewis shared the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine with Drs. Christiane Nüsslein-Volhard and Eric F. Wieschaus, who identified the genes controlling the development of the fruit fly's body segments. Wieschaus is also a long-term NICHD grantee. The genes the three researchers discovered were later found to have counterparts in mammals and have critical functions in the development of mice and humans.

Homeotic Genes Kelly Kaminski Evolution Paper April 22, 2003 I. Introduction One of biology¹s and man¹s greatest mysteries is how a single fertilized cell develops into a complex organism, like a fly, a mouse, or a human. In the early 19 th century, Von Baer observed that all vertebrates, from salamanders to humans, look very similar in the early stages of embryonic development. At about the same time, French zoologist Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire declared, ³all animals have the same body plan (Zihlman 2001).² From very early on, scientists have realized that there is some fundamental linkage between vertebrates. Today, better technology has enabled biologists to discover the genetic connections between very diverse animal species. The homeotic genes were one of these important connections. Homeotic genes are surprisingly very similar in structure and function across the Phylum Vertebrata and have proved important in scientific research. II. Early Experiments and History A tremendous source of knowledge about how homeotic genes function came from three men, who won the Noble Prize in Medicine in 1995. These Noble Prize winners were Dr. Edward B. Lewis, Christiane Nusslein-Volhard, and Eric F. Wieschaus.

Wieschaus (source) Born 8 Jun 1947 American developmental biologist discovering the genetic controls of early embryonic development. Wieschaus worked discovered (1980) that about 5,000 of the fly's 20,000 genes are important to embryonic development and about 140 are essential. They formed the widely accepted model that three sets of genes control subdivision in the developing embryo: gap genes, pair-rule genes and segment-polarity genes. Their work helped scientists to better understand congenital mutations in other animals, including humans.
