Alec was a curious kid and knew what he wanted to do when he was 12. Alec went to Merton College for a little and received a 4 year -scholarship to his next school. He then went to the University of Oxford in England for four years. He got a degree in Philosophy while he was there.]]> 2021-08-28 02:43:27 UTC https://padlet.com/raquel215479/2hupl8kkxltymklw/wish/1701658952 raquel215479 https://padlet.com/raquel215479/2hupl8kkxltymklw/wish/1701663042 Sir Alec John Jeffery is famous for creating a process of DNA fingerprinting in the Forensic science field. He created DNA fingerprinting in the twentieth century. This process of fingerprinting is when "technicians identify a person as the source of a biological sample by comparing the genetic information contained in the person's DNA to the DNA contained in the sample." He developed this process in the 1980's while still at the University of Leicester. His process was used immediately after it was created and helped the police find the specific suspect.]]> 2021-08-28 02:49:57 UTC https://padlet.com/raquel215479/2hupl8kkxltymklw/wish/1701663042 raquel215479 https://padlet.com/raquel215479/2hupl8kkxltymklw/wish/1701667560 Alec John Jeffery developed the process of DNA fingerprinting by finding a specific human gene (seal myoglobin) from a fingerprint. He studied and tested the gene multiple times finding that he could find the DNA of that person with that fingerprint. ]]> 2021-08-28 02:57:05 UTC https://padlet.com/raquel215479/2hupl8kkxltymklw/wish/1701667560 raquel215479 https://padlet.com/raquel215479/2hupl8kkxltymklw/wish/1701668955 Jeffery credited his college principal at Luton for the finding of the process since his principal is the one who put him into Oxford. He found the first gene with a rabbit then tried it on humans. Another interesting fact is about how finding DNA fingerprinting was an accident and was not meant to happen, Alec Jeffery wouldn't have found this great discovery if he wasn't curious of science]]> 2021-08-28 02:59:23 UTC https://padlet.com/raquel215479/2hupl8kkxltymklw/wish/1701668955 raquel215479 https://padlet.com/raquel215479/2hupl8kkxltymklw/wish/1701671563 The Embryo Project Encyclopedia.
