This is a history of the personalities and single-minded devotion of four Nobel laureates who played a pivotal role in the creation of a new and prevalent branch of biology. This led to major medical advances in one of the greatest centres of scientific research: the Laboratory of Molecular Biology in Cambridge, which they helped to establish.
