摘要

Geneticist Nancy Hopkins, professor of biology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT; Cambridge, MA), has achieved unprecedented success in cloning vertebrate developmental genes by exploiting zebrafish as an ideal model organism. By using insertional mutagenesis, a technique pioneered in invertebrate animals such as Drosophila but long considered impossible to use in vertebrates, Hopkins's laboratory has cloned hundreds of genes that play a role in creating a viable fish embryo. This research has earned her several accolades, including 1998 election to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and 1999 election to the Institute of Medicine. Hopkins has gained additional recognition for her revolutionary work on gender equity issues in science, including many awards and more than 400 requests to speak on the topic.
