Schweitzer Klassifikation
Edwin H. McConkey is a molecular biologist who began his career in science as a herpetologist. At the University of California, Berkeley, he became interested in molecular aspects of development, which evolved into an emphasis on protein synthesis under the influence of James Watson at Harvard University. After many years at the University of Colorado, his interests focused on human genetics, and he now specializes in comparative studies on the human and chimpanzee genomes, with the goal of understanding the genetic basis of human uniqueness.
