1 00:00:00,087 --> 00:00:03,096 well 2 00:00:03,096 --> 00:00:06,475 well it was you know as 3 00:00:07,339 --> 00:00:11,590 typical have really interesting development in that 4 00:00:11,059 --> 00:00:14,153 I was looking for something else and and you know it was that 5 00:00:15,053 --> 00:00:18,110 it was a like PCR with the 6 00:00:19,001 --> 00:00:23,015 the possible the the outcome other solution 7 00:00:23,024 --> 00:00:27,025 to hypothetical problem that did not exist and I was working on 8 00:00:27,025 --> 00:00:30,804 trying to sequence single base-pair 9 00:00:31,029 --> 00:00:35,630 you know then whether call snips today single nucleotide polymorphism 10 00:00:35,063 --> 00:00:39,082 with because those were medically important now is trying 11 00:00:39,649 --> 00:00:43,190 to do it with oligonucleotides because Iran 12 00:00:43,019 --> 00:00:46,025 a lab that made them and we had 13 00:00:46,025 --> 00:00:50,026 really improve the efficiency with which we made them earn 14 00:00:50,026 --> 00:00:53,595 the three or four years prior said 15 00:00:53,829 --> 00:00:56,834 we're making we can make mine faster than the company's 16 00:00:57,329 --> 00:01:01,750 cedars I word for could use them had seven people working for me 17 00:01:01,075 --> 00:01:06,128 and I was thinking on you have to cut step down to like about three kids now 18 00:01:07,028 --> 00:01:09,047 we get the salon omitted devices 19 00:01:09,047 --> 00:01:12,106 on tonight arm into increase the demand 20 00:01:13,006 --> 00:01:16,043 for all you can eat I'm so sorry think you know what else can you do with them 21 00:01:16,043 --> 00:01:19,140 and that it's possible to make if 22 00:01:20,004 --> 00:01:23,613 a rapid clinical and safer single 23 00:01:24,009 --> 00:01:27,630 his polymorphism like sickle cell anemia 24 00:01:27,063 --> 00:01:30,162 was a good example people there that 25 00:01:30,729 --> 00:01:35,814 back then maybe you going ok Lanigan you take a sample maybe three weeks later 26 00:01:36,579 --> 00:01:39,604 you know which is monitor agonizing 27 00:01:39,829 --> 00:01:43,590 other you be nice to have been one shift hospital 28 00:01:43,059 --> 00:01:46,268 in you and that let you know and I 29 00:01:46,799 --> 00:01:50,240 I thought oligonucleotides maybe with the answer there were that 30 00:01:50,024 --> 00:01:53,027 I was really home add as 31 00:01:53,054 --> 00:01:56,125 other chemists I still make him and 32 00:01:57,025 --> 00:02:01,104 I really didn't have an appreciation for happy huge dance 33 00:02:01,329 --> 00:02:05,000 human genome compared to say five thousand base pair 34 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:09,005 plasma that I was using isn't serb model system 35 00:02:09,005 --> 00:02:13,080 and and I was was thinking this method 36 00:02:13,008 --> 00:02:17,777 require couple organically times wanna miss Serbia control what they would be 37 00:02:18,569 --> 00:02:19,430 pointed 38 00:02:19,043 --> 00:02:22,119 right toward each other just like in PCR reaction and 39 00:02:23,019 --> 00:02:26,027 and then I and I was thinking I mean it really love 40 00:02:26,027 --> 00:02:29,066 pics sexe nucleotide triphosphates 41 00:02:29,066 --> 00:02:32,140 mind there's a couple technical problems trying to solve in 10 min 42 00:02:33,004 --> 00:02:37,025 a the whales in and decide to solve it was to 43 00:02:37,061 --> 00:02:40,410 use to like run a sort of sham reaction 44 00:02:40,959 --> 00:02:45,015 first with the oligonucleotides in place in the sample 45 00:02:45,519 --> 00:02:50,390 and then and then I had my break actresses and suffering and again 46 00:02:50,039 --> 00:02:53,091 and because he was going to use a it is 47 00:02:53,091 --> 00:02:56,280 not for two not the idea and for the fight 48 00:02:57,099 --> 00:03:01,152 duplicating the signal but then I realized the side effect to that was 49 00:03:01,629 --> 00:03:02,980 going to be the house pointed 50 00:03:02,098 --> 00:03:05,098 double the the signal if 51 00:03:05,098 --> 00:03:09,194 there were enough like the exit Euclid has available are trying to get readers 52 00:03:10,094 --> 00:03:12,173 if there are any come in with the same 53 00:03:13,019 --> 00:03:16,102 that you are driving a man was right he does not have this in your head you 54 00:03:16,849 --> 00:03:17,560 thinking about 55 00:03:17,056 --> 00:03:20,083 constantly in and it just realized that there is a way the 56 00:03:20,083 --> 00:03:24,412 you don't think in the lab as much you know I do you think 57 00:03:25,159 --> 00:03:29,920 I was spending my weekends opinion this in a little cabin 58 00:03:29,092 --> 00:03:32,491 and I Drive up every Friday night income a concern 59 00:03:33,319 --> 00:03:37,040 and that's really all the nice things but to a half hours 60 00:03:37,004 --> 00:03:40,059 and e sorry your 61 00:03:40,059 --> 00:03:44,147 uydess got some new to me and you can't do anything else 62 00:03:45,047 --> 00:03:48,073 to think as this when I did most to my thinking 63 00:03:48,073 --> 00:03:51,120 usually his the day-to-day life in a laboratory 64 00:03:52,002 --> 00:03:55,291 doesn't allow alive now 65 00:03:55,489 --> 00:03:59,950 with all these letters in your inbox and use your phone ringing in his own these 66 00:03:59,095 --> 00:04:01,024 people have to deal with and 70 have 67 00:04:01,879 --> 00:04:07,898 really that kind I'm 68 00:04:08,069 --> 00:04:09,770 I'll 69 00:04:09,077 --> 00:04:09,102 of
