Comments by Greg Lennon, chief scientific officer at Gene Logic in Gaithersburg, Md.

If there were a Book of Genesis for genetics, perhaps it would begin with Data, that begets Information, that begets Knowledge, that begets those salutary twins Therapy and Prevention. Such a book would be written by thousands of scribes, in hundreds of journals, over scores of years. How much more remarkable it is, then, that just four scientists with varying skills in the same field could have pooled their talents to make a worldwide impact on the course of genetic data-gathering.

These fluttering sensations are the brain’s reaction to certain emotions, which can be amplified or soothed by the gut’s own “bugs".
