Article Abstract:

Mike Levine, the professor and codirector of the University of California at Berkeley's Center for Integrative Genomics, has devoted his career to dissecting the molecular basis of gene regulation and the role that regulatory networks play in development and evolution. He has led the discovery of the modular organization of the regulatory regions of developmental genes in Drosophila, which is very significant for developmental biology and evolutionary biology.
