Watson and ७ to Shout managed to decipher structure of DNA, their achievement
It was extolled as a celebration of human spirit, as the triumph which has topped
Century attempts scientific by to comprehend(overtake) the Universe. All confidently expected, that
This opening will be given people to serve for their blessing.
But it has not occurred(happened). Thirty years after almost all colleagues
Watson and Shout on scientific work have been engaged in by business of absolutely other sort.
Researches in the field of molecular genetics have got extraordinary scope and
Have turned to the huge commercial enterprise with the mullions-strong
The capital, but it is necessary to search for roots of it not in 1953, and in April of 1976.
Then there was a known meeting between the large
Industrial magnate Robert Svensonom and the biochemist from Californian
University Herbert Bojerom. They have decided to base(found) the commercial company on
To use of achievements in the technician(technics) of manipulations with genes. Their new
The company, , soon became the largest and most successful of all
Undertakings in the field of gene engineering.
All at once have wanted to become rich. Almost every week
Appeared about opening of the new company, scientific united in groups for
Uses of results of genetic researches. By 1986 not less
362 scientists, including 64 of National Academy, were members
Advisory councils of biotechnological forms, and those scientists which were
Owners of actions(shares) of these firms or periodically advised them, was
Much more.
It is necessary to underline, value of change was however great
Relations of scientists to result of the work. In the past scientists-theorists
Concerned business with snobbery. To gain money - the employment(occupation) unworthy
The intellectual, suitable only for shopkeepers, they considered. And to be engaged
Researches for the industry, even for such prestigious firms, as
"Bell" or Ah-bi-em, - destiny of those who did not manage to receive a place in
University. Thus, pure scientists rather critically concerned to
To work of scientists-prikladnikov, and to the industry as a whole. Thanks to it
To old antagonism university scientists were not subject to the corrupting
To influence of the industry, and every time when in practical sphere arose
Dispute, they were ready impartially and at the highest professional level
To participate in discussion.
But today the picture has changed. Remains very little as
Microbiologists, and the scientific institutions(institutes) which have been not connected with commerce. Old
Kind times have sunk into oblivion. Researches in genetics move ahead neby -
묨 rates. But they are coded, spent(lead) in haste and aimed on
Extraction of profit.
In atmosphere 樠樨 occurrence the such is almost inevitable
The companies as "設 ⨪ ⥪" in Has fallen , the companies with
Far-reaching plans. Also it is not necessary to be surprised to that crisis in
