Professor Richard O. Hynes, director of the Center for Cancer Research, holds a glass slide containing thousands of bits of DNA that have been exposed to genetic material from tumor cells. He and former postdoctoral fellow Edwin A. Clark (left), now at Millennium Predictive Medicine in Cambridge, collaborated with other scientists to identify the gene responsible for cancer metastasis.
