Happy birthday to Canadian geneticist Irene Ayako Uchida (1917-2013)! In my #linocut Uchida is shown surrounded by chromosones, with anomalies (shown with pink arrows) due to radiation exposure, based on one of her research papers. A strand of DNA is hidden in the image (as her watchband).
Uchida didn’t set out to be a scientist. She was studying English literature at UBC, before she was interned 1/n

Research
Environmental DNA
During his MSc project Willerslev and colleagues were the first to obtain ancient DNA directly from ice cores Later, Willerslev and his team expanded on this approach and was the first to show that DNA from plants, mammals and birds can be obtained directly from environmental samples (environmental DNA) ancient as well as modern.He later showed that
