Abstract
On a recent visit Richard O Hynes, FRS, HHMI, Daniel K. Ludwig Professor for Cancer Research at the Koch Institute for Integrative Cancer Research, MIT, graciously agreed to be interviewed in person for the first in Cell Communication and Adhesion's series on "Leaders in Cell Adhesion". In this interview we discussed three things: 1) the early role of family, mentors, and luck on his career path; 2) his major discoveries of fibronectin, integrins and the evolution of extracellular matrix proteins; and 3) his role in, and thoughts on, current science policy. This interview reveals his characteristic calmness and infectious optimism, his spontaneous and down to earth sense of humor, and his great ability to place scientific questions in perspective. The interview, carried out on April 30(th) 2013 is reported here verbatim with only minor editing for clarity.
在最近的一次访问中，Richard O Hynes, FRS, HHMI, Daniel K. Ludwig，麻省理工学院科赫综合癌症研究所癌症研究教授，慷慨地同意接受关于细胞通讯和粘附系列“细胞粘附领导者”的第一次亲自采访。在这次采访中，我们讨论了三件事:1)家庭、导师和运气在他早期的职业道路上所起的作用;2)主要发现纤维连接蛋白、整合素和细胞外基质蛋白的进化;3)他在当前科学政策中的作用和思考。这次采访揭示了他特有的冷静和富有感染力的乐观主义，他自发而接地气的幽默感，以及他正确看待科学问题的能力。采访于2013年4月30日进行，本文逐字逐句报道，为清晰起见仅做了少量编辑。
期刊介绍：
Cessation
Cell Communication and Adhesion is an international Open Access journal which provides a central forum for research on mechanisms underlying cellular signalling and adhesion. The journal provides a single source of information concerning all forms of cellular communication, cell junctions, adhesion molecules and families of receptors from diverse biological systems.
The journal welcomes submission of original research articles, reviews, short communications and conference reports.
