Until I was five my immediate family lived near my grandfather's farm where my mother had grown up, and with the exception of a few modern conveniences, had not changed a lot over the years. My grandfather milked several cows twice a day and supplied the neighbours with dairy products. He liked to go visiting around the county on Saturdays and he also enjoyed the neighbours when they came by once a week with their empty milk jars. He walked them out to their cars and hung over the driver's side window until they drove off. The road was two tire tracks on well mown grass between barbed wire fences, cows off to the right, alfalfa or sometimes corn to the left. We could play in the attic. Even in the day there was not enough light to keep us calm in the attic, and there were animal-skin coats and unfamiliar garments that lurked in the closets. There was a horrible picture of Teddy Roosevelt killing a bear. Very bloody. And there were black widow spiders waiting for us always, down in their funnel shaped webs in all the dark corners. It was a thrilling place during a thunderstorm and, like the hay loft of the barn, a place where my pre-adolescent sexuality concerning my cousin Judy, who was one month my senior, would come a little more sharply into focus. We were only nine or ten, but it was there already with it's pressing curiosity. We sometimes kissed. My techniques have improved, but not the thrill.

Mullis American biochemist Dr. Kary B. Mullis (1944- ) won the 1993 Nobel Prize for chemistry for revolutionizing the fields of biology and medicine with his method for producing abundant fragments of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). His Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) enables scientists to create sequences of genetic material in quantities that are large enough to study. PCR has played a major role in the International Human Genome Project which has major health and antiaging implications . The technique has also become invaluable in disease diagnosis, forensic-science analysis in convicting the guilty and freeing the falsely accused, and the study of DNA from ancient or fossil tissues. Mullis shared the Nobel Prize with British-born Canadian biochemist Michael Smith, who was honored for devising a technique to control the formation of proteins. In 1998 Mullis was inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame in the United States.

Mullis, Kary B. My father Cecil Banks Mullis and mother, formerly Bernice Alberta Barker grew up in rural North Carolina in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. My dad's family had a general store, which I never saw. My grandparents on his side had already died before I started noticing things. My mother's parents were close to me all during my childhood, and her father Albert stopped by to see me in a non-substantial form on his way out of this world in 1986. I was living in California. "Pop" died at 92 and wondering what was happening to me out in California, stopped by Kensington for a couple days. My house afforded a view of San Francisco and the Golden Gate Bridge. His visit was an odd experience. Not at all frightening. I have cultivated the curious things in life and found this one pleasant. "Pop" and I sat in the evenings in my kitchen and I told him about the contemporary California world while we drank beer. I drank his for him as it appeared that although he was very much there for me, he was not there at all for the beer. Many of my friends when I told them of this thought it fanciful. (I think it more likely than much of our math today and at least half of our physics, both of which I like). Until I was five my immediate family lived near my grandfather's farm where my mother had grown up, and with the exception of a few modern conveniences, had not changed a lot over the years. My grandfather milked several cows twice a day and supplied the neighbours with dairy products. He liked to go visiting around the county on Saturdays and he also enjoyed the neighbours when they came by once a week with their empty milk jars. He walked them out to their cars and hung over the driver's side window until they drove off. The road was two tire tracks on well mown grass between barbed wire fences, cows off to the right, alfalfa or sometimes corn to the left. I remember mostly the summers.

Dancing Naked in the Mind Field by Kary B. Mullis Book Description Here are the outrageous ideas and extraordinary adventures of the world's most eccentric and outspoken Nobel Prize-winning scientist. Awarded the Nobel Prize in chemistry in 1993, Kary Mullis has frequently been at odds with the scientific establishment. Legendary for his invention of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), which redefined the world of DNA and genetics, Mullis is also an accomplished surfer, a veteran of Berkeley in the sixties, and perhaps the only Nobel laureate to describe a possible encounter with aliens. A scientist of boundless curiosity who refuses to accept any proposition based on secondhand or hearsay evidence, he is brilliant, funny, provocative, and charismatic. In Dancing Naked in the Mind Field , Mullis writes with passion and humor about a wide range of subjects: from the scientific method to parapsychology, from poisonous spiders to the HIV virus and AIDS, from global warming to astrology, from the O. J. Simpson trial to how you can turn a light bulb on with your mind. A multidimensional play-land of ideas, this book challenges us to question the authority of scientific dogma even as it reveals the workings of an uncannily original scientific Save up to - Order online from Amazon.com

PRESENTS A FREE LECTURE BY DR. KARY B. MULLIS 1993 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for the invention of Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) (Introduction by F. Lee Bailey, Esq.) HIV = AIDS: WHERE'S THE EVIDENCE? Dr. Kary Mullis invented PCR, considered by many to be the most significant scientific discovery this century. PCR is a method of finding specific DNA molecules enabling forensic criminal investigators to conduct DNA fingerprinting; allowing scientists to extract DNA from fossils; inspiring books such as Jurassic Park; and, it is the basis for the "viral load" theory in AIDS. Dr. Mullis was the forensic DNA witness during the O. J. Simpson trial. He is the author of Dancing Naked in the Mind Field.

Kary B. Mullis (1945 - ) 1993 Nobel Prize in Chemistry B.S.in Chemistry, Georgia Tech; Ph.D. in Biochemistry, University of California-Berkeley. The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences awarded the 1993 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for contributions to the development of methods within DNA-based chemistry , with to Dr. Kary B. Mullis , La Jolla, California, U.S.A., for his invention of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method, and to Professor Michael Smith , University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada, for his fundamental contributions to the establishment of oligonucleotide-based, site-directed mutagenesis and its development for protein studies. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) according to a number of scientists has been the biggest advance in molecular biology in a decade. It is a technique that amplifies DNA, enabling scientists to make millions of copies of a DNA molecule in a very short time. PCR has been used to detect DNA sequences, to diagnose genetic diseases, to carry out DNA fingerprinting, to detect bacteria or viruses (particularly the AIDS virus), and to research human evolution. Kary Mullis, a scientist and a surfer from La Jolla, California, considered an "intellectual maverick" by many, won a Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1993 for developing PCR. A native of South Carolina, he received a bachelor's degree in Chemistry from Georgia Tech and a Ph.D. in Biochemistry from U.C. Berkeley. His Ph.D. thesis was entitled

Kary Mullis Biotechnology owes a lot to Kary Mullis (1944 - ). During a long evening drive in 1983, he invented a way to turn a single piece of DNA into millions of identical copies– and it’s as easy as tossing ingredients into a test tube. Mullis was born in the foothills of rural North Carolina, a childhood still vivid to him. He credits his undergraduate training in physics, chemistry and math at Georgia Tech with teaching him "most of the useful technical things" that he has used in his scientific work. The rest he learned during his PhD work in biochemistry at the University of California, Berkeley and postdoctoral training at the University of Kansas Medical School. Eventually Mullis returned to California and found himself making oligonucleotides, short single-stranded sequences of DNA, with Cetus Corporation. Sources Gibbs, Richard A.. 2000.
