cell cycle nobel lecture- conclusion

In his Nobel lecture, Hartwell provides a well-rounded overview of the history and future of cell cycle regulation research. He also discusses the future of research as it pertains to solving human disease, taking a closer look at gene interactions and how they pertain to phenotypic variation. For Hartwell, yeast as a model organism for the study of not only cell cycle regulation, but a host of different topics in molecular biology can provide insight in the future into human disease. Cell cycle regulation is a complex and important mechanism that is highly conserved throughout eukaryotic lineages and further research and understanding are extremely important for not only molecular biologists, but medical practitioners and evolutionary biologists as well.
