PACE OF TRANSLATION

WILHEM KONRAD von RONTGEN

Up to the present time, the human electro- cardiogram discovered by Waller could be

recorded only by means of the capillary- electrometer ...I have sought a method ...

which would satisfy the requirements of inscribing the electrocardiogram of humans in approx, at least, its correct proportions.

INDUSTRIAL IMPERATIVE FOR TRANSLATION

Pr. Rontgen probably does not draw one dollar profit from his discovery. He belongs to those pure scientists who study for pleasure and live to delve into the secrets of nature. After they have discovered something wonderful, someone else must come to look at it from the commercial point of view. This will also be the case with Roentgen’s discovery. One must see how to use it and how to profit by it financially. Thomas Alva Edison

GENENTECH (1976)

Biological sciences played a marginal role in the pharmaceutical industrial drug discovery as they were considered too underdeveloped to shed practical value on molecular level and for human effect

Proven wrong by Herbert Boyer who founded Genentech w/ VC Robert Swanson who used insights from different biological disciplines to discover new drugs
