Dr. Bruce Alan Beutler received one-half of the 2011 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for “discoveries concerning the activation of innate immunity.” To celebrate the 30th anniversary of POSTECH, Dr. Bruce gave a lecture for Postechians titled “Discovering Mutation that causes phenotype in real time” in the Grand Conference Room of POSCO International Center on Nov. 14.
Dr. Bruce used a genetic map to figure out how mutation occurs and phenotype is determined, and how mutation causes the phenotype in the genetic map. With the analysis, Dr. Bruce emphasized that whenever scientists do research, they need to see each part to analyze the whole machine or subject to truly understand the meaning of the research.
