DNA

DNA tells the story of the race to discover the structure of DNA, and the scientists who changed our understanding of the world and everything in it. This series also looks at genetic engineering, the Human Genome Project, discusses the implications of the scientists' work for the future of mankind, and shows how the discovery of DNA is being turned into a cure for cancer.

The five-part series, looks at the implications of the scientists' work for the future of mankind. The scientists were a small group of pioneers who explored a world too small to see. What they found there answered some eternal questions - What is life? How is it made? Why are children like their parents?"@en

  • "This programs tells the story of how researchers have developed radically new ways to treat cancer by tracing it back to its origins: its DNA. The program focuses on two pioneering efforts: the race between Dr. Mary Claire King and Dr. Mark Skolnick, founder of Myriad Genetics to isolate the gene linked to breast cancer, and Dr. Brian Druker's work that eventually led to an anti-cancer drug which cures Chronic Myeloid Leukemia. Also looks at the work of David Botstein in discovering gene markers and Per Lonning, Botstein and partner Patrick Brown who developed a micro-array technique to reveal differences between seemingly identical cancers."
