The Scientist : Mario R. Capecchi [1/3/2004]

Mario R. Capecchi, 65, does not like recounting his early life. This Howard Hughes Medical Investigator, who won the Lasker Award and Kyoto Prize for determining how to eliminate or modify a gene from the murine genome through homologous recombination, prefers concentrating on the present. Considering his past, the preference is understandable.
