"Labor Day has come and gone, and I am chagrined to find that I haven't made it through my summer reading. My list comprised only a single book, but a rather unusual one: the text is three billion years old, has six billion copies in print, runs three billion letters long (about one million pages), and is written entirely in four characters (A, T, C, G) with no spaces or punctuation. The book, of course, is a great classic, The Sequence of the Human Genome."

"For insiders in genome research, the name Eric Lander evokes a palpable image of the trends sweeping biology—automation, computers, entrepreneurialism, big science and big ideas.

A mathematician turned Harvard Business School professor turned gene scientist, the 42-year-old Lander is director of the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research/MIT Center for Genome Research. Lander has built the lab into the world’s most productive academic gene sequencing facility and the flagship of the international Human Genome Project. "

"TR Senior Associate Editor Antonio Regalado managed to catch up with Lander by phone early on a recent Sunday morning."

Bioinformatics will be at the core of biology in the 21st century. In fields ranging from structural biology to genomics to biomedical imaging, ready access to data and analytical tools are fundamentally changing the way investigators in the life sciences conduct research and approach problems. Complex, computationally intensive biological problems are now being addressed and promise to significantly advance our understanding of biology and medicine. No biological discipline will be unaffected by these technological breakthroughs.
