Quotes by or related to Warren Weaver


"...in the 1930s [Warren Weaver] had used the term molecular biology for the first time in a report of the Rockefeller Foundation. I think Warren Weaver's usage was quite significant. This was largely Warren Weaver's idea, that the time had come when a more basic attack ought to be made on the problem of life, in the field of biology and medicine."
Linus Pauling. Linus Pauling oral history interview, American Philosophical Society. March 1, 1971.
