| Tiivistelmä: | In the early 1990s, Dinko Valerio was laboring in obscurity at the Netherlands' Leiden University. His big break came when he cloned the gene whose mutation causes ADA deficiency, a rare hereditary disease that weakens the body's ability to fight infection. Soon after, Genetech Inc. invited him to spend four months at its California headquarters. Inspired, Valerio returned to his native Holland, quit his academic post, and founded a company called IntroGene, backed by a Dutch venture-capital firm. |
