An unexpected cellular revolution
Interview with John Walker
Here, John discusses how a chance meeting with Fred Sanger changed the course of his career, life in the LMB's PNAC Division in its early years, and how his decision to focus on ATP synthase wasn't entirely popular.
This interview is part of the LMB Through the Years project celebrating the LMB's 60th anniversary. A selection of twelve staff and alumni, from across the decades, were interviewed by science writer Kathy Weston about their time at the LMB and what it has meant to them. Each interviewee has also chosen an object to represent their time at the LMB, giving an unusual insight into the many facets of life at the LMB.

About the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology (LMB):
The LMB is one of the world's leading research institutes. Discoveries and inventions developed at the LMB, for example DNA sequencing and methods to determine the structure of proteins, have revolutionised all areas of biology. Our scientists work to advance understanding of biological processes at the molecular level. This information will help us to understand the workings of complex systems, such as the immune system and the brain, and solve key problems in human health.
