This is a speech made by Dr. J. Craig Venter for the Sir John Crawford Memorial Lecture series at the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR) annual meetings. The speaker is the President and Chief Scientific Officer of Celera Genomics Corporation and the Founder, Chairman of the Board and former President of The Institute for Genomic Research (TIGR), a not-for-profit genomics research institution. The speech traces how we are moving from evolving levels of genomic information to study the protein world, to a fuller study of medicine and the complete spectrum of biology, of which agriculture is a very key environmental counterpart.
