Applying the subtle methods of organic chemistry, he synthesized, one by one, a wide range of delicate biochemicals, including vitamins E and B1. His research led him to the nucleus of the cell, where the all-powerful genes are stored. These mysterious chemicals, which control heredity and growth, are made...
