The scientist who looked away

Research must have the courage to investigate even where is not expected to gain

A conversation with Aaron J. Ciechanover, Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2004
On July 7, released the new issue of the bimonthly cultural University of the Sacred Heart "The Life and Thought." We anticipate excerpts from one of the articles.


Charles Dignola

is one of the scientists, doctors and most talented living Nobel prize for chemistry in 2004 for discovering how proteins are discharged from our body. His family immigrated to Israel from Poland before the Second World War, and Aaron J. Ciechanover was born in Haifa in 1947, he also served three years in the Israeli Navy, which has the rank of major. But his life was devoted to science: he studied at the Hebrew University Hadassah Medical School in Jerusalem and received his doctorate in medicine, the Israel Institute of Technology (Technion), where he now teaches.

She received the Nobel Prize because, at a time when everyone was trying to understand how living and reproducing cell, studied his death. How did you get this idea?

I well remember that time when the entire scientific community tried to understand how the genetic information of DNA was transcribed into RNA and how RNA form proteins, deal with the deconstruction of what looked like a cell without any practical use. To build a house - we thought - it takes an architect, a builder, materials, images, artists, enough to destroy a bulldozer. I and others have thought that plunge into the stream in which swam was not a great idea, and groped for something different would offer more chance.
