John Gurdon, recognized for cloning a frog from the DNA of an adult cell, was a pioneer in the field of genetics. Criticized in his youth for his school performance, he demonstrated that DNA is identical in all cells of the organism. His discoveries led to the development of cloning technologies and pluripotent stem cells, having a significant impact on modern medicine. Gurdon died at the age of 92, leaving behind an impressive scientific legacy.
