A minute of silence. Kary Banks Mullis has died (08/07/2019).
Kary Mullis was an American Biochemist and Doctor of Chemistry who developed the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) in 1985, considered one of the most important legacies in the history of Humanity, along with the description of DNA (Watson, Crick and Franklin) and the theory of Relativity (Einstein).
Currently, I consider anyone who does not know the PCR developed by Kary Mullis to be illiterate, since it is a molecular technique that came to stay just like COVID19. Unlike the current disease, PCR is a molecular tool that allows a DNA fragment of interest to be amplified to a level of at least one billion copies.
PCR; Nobel Prize; Remarkable idea
