Wikipedia notes that "it was not until the 19th century that the term scientist came into regular use," a term coined long after many of the people the atlas now calls scientists had already done their work. Browsing by era lets a visitor compare scientists active in the same period.Facts20th centurySourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonField EstablishedWell-attested1905 120th centuryFilter Results51 entriesDisciplineAllGenetics (19)Field (legacy)AllBacteriology and molecular genetics (1)Behavioral genetics and neurogenetics (1)Biochemistry (1)Biochemistry and genetics (1)Biochemistry, biophysics and molecular biology (1)Biology (2)Biology (genetics, pathology and molecular biology) (1)Biophysics (2)Biotechnology (1)Developmental and cell biology (1)Developmental biology (1)Developmental biology (nuclear transplantation and cloning) (1)Developmental biology and genetics (1)Embryology and developmental biology (1)Genetics (7)Genetics and developmental biology (1)Genetics and evolutionary biology (2)Genetics and genomics (1)Genetics and microbiology (1)Genetics and molecular biology (1)Genetics, cytogenetics (1)Genetics, Developmental Biology, Neuroscience (1)Genetics, embryogenesis (1)Genomics (1)Hematology, Pediatric oncology, Stem cell biology (1)Human genetics (1)Medical genetics (1)Microbiology (3)Microbiology and genetics (1)Microbiology, Immunology, Genomics (1)Molecular Biology (2)Molecular biology and biochemistry (1)Molecular biology, immunology and neuroscience (1)Molecular genetics (1)Oncology, Pathology (1)Plant biology (1)Plant science and genetics (1)Stem cell biology and regenerative medicine (1)InstitutionAllCavendish Laboratory (2)Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (2)King's College London (1)NationalityAllGermany (1)Israel (1)Japan (2)Switzerland (1)United Kingdom (5)United States (27)BrowseCompareSelect all 51Alfred Hershey20th centuryAndrew Fire20th centuryBarbara McClintock20th centuryBert Vogelstein20th centuryBonnie Bassler20th centuryCharles Yanofsky20th centuryChristiane Nusslein-Volhard20th centuryCraig Mello20th centuryCraig Venter20th centuryDaniel Nathans20th centuryDavid Baulcombe20th centuryDavid Botstein20th centuryDouglas C.
