This thought-provoking collection of articles and essays investigates the life and work of John Thomas Patterson, the academic and scientist who broadened the field of genetics in the 20th century. It celebrates the 80th birthday of Patterson, whose vision and leadership as a professor in the Department of Zoology at the University of Texas at Austin helped establish a department that gained international acclaim for its research in biology. He had a particular interest in evolution and genetics, which led to extensive studies of the species relationships in the genus Drosophila, and he became a leading authority on the subject. Through a scholarship program, he attracted a distinguished faculty to the department which became one of the most productive research centers in genetics and cytology. Pattersonâs legacy is not limited to his own research but also to the generations of students and colleagues he inspired. This book provides a fascinating insight into the dedication that transformed not only the field of genetics but the lives of those who knew him.
