by Peter Allen

One of the biggest scientific achievements of the modern era must be that of free-spirited American J. Craig Venter: the deciphering of the human genome. But what makes a person take on such an immense task? How did he grow up to become so relentlessly ambitious, and what fueled his ongoing motivation right up to the amazing breakthrough and beyond?

These blinks tell the tale of how Venter’s life unfolded – from a childhood full of playful creativity, to his rebellious attitude and meteoric rise within the scien-tific community.

In these blinks, you’ll learn
• how a shark attack saved Venter’s life;
• why identifying human genes quickly made him a center of controversy; and
• which amazing aquatic task Venter took on after deciphering the human genome.
