HUMAMAN GENOME TIMELINE
- (1822-1884)
- Gerorge Mendel
- Gregor Mendel, the pioneer of contemporary
genetics, elucidates his investigations on
experiments in plant hybridization.
- (1866-1945)
- Thomas Hunt Morgan
- He discovered the relationship between genes
and chromosomes, using the fruit fly as a
model organism.
- (1920-1958)
- Rosalind Franklin
- She contributed to the discovery of the structure of
DNA through her work with X-ray diffraction
imaging, although she was not initially recognised
for it.
- (1928-) and (1916-2004)
- James Watson y Francis Crick
- Together they proposed the model of the double helix
structure of DNA in 1953, based on the work of other
scientists, including Franklin's X-ray diffraction
photography.
- (1902-1992)
- Barbara McClintock
- She discovered mobile elements or "jumping genes" in
maize, demonstrating that genes can change position
in chromosomes.
- (1910-1976) and (1920-2013)
- Jacques Monod (1910-1976) y François Jacob
- They proposed the model of gene regulation in E. coli bacteria,
known as the "operon".
- (1927-2019)
- Sydney Brenner
- She made important contributions to the understanding of
the genetic code and the organisation of the nervous system
through her work with the worm Caenorhabditis elegans.
- (1946-)
- Mary-Claire King
- She discovered the BRCA1 gene, which is involved in
hereditary breast and ovarian cancer.
- (1903-1989) and (1909-1975)
- George Beadle y Edward Tatum
- They proposed the one-gene-one-enzyme theory, showing that
a gene codes for a specific enzyme.
- (1909-2012)
- Rita Levi-Montalcini
- She discovered nerve growth factor (NGF), laying the foundation for
understanding neural development and winning the Nobel Prize in
Physiology or Medicine in 1986.
