罗伯特·温伯格
  溫伯格是美國著名分子生物學家,他主持的實驗室在癌起源的研究中做出重大貢獻,我認為溫伯格完全有資格獲得諾貝爾生理學或醫學奬。溫伯格的這本書出版於1998年,書中總結癌起源研究的歷史和當時的最新認識。


  Robert Allan Weinberg (born 11 November 1942) is a Daniel K. Ludwig Professor for Cancer Research at MIT and American Cancer Society Research Professor; his research is in the area of oncogenes and the genetic basis of human cancer. Weinberg is also affiliated with the Broad Institute and is a founding member of the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research. He co-teaches 7.012 (introductory biology) with Eric Lander.
  
  He is best known for his discoveries of the first human oncogene Ras and the first tumor supressor gene Rb, which is partially documented in Natalie Angiers book, Natural Obsessions, about her year spent in Weinberg's lab.
  
  He won the National Medal of Science in 1997, the Wolf Prize in Medicine in 2004 (shared with Roger Y. Tsien), and he is a member of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences. In 2007 he received an honorary doctorate degree in commemoration of Linnaeus from Uppsala University. He is a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences since 1992.
  
  He is well known for both his brilliance in cancer research and for his mentorship of many eminent scientists.
