Description
By the early 1980s, the molecular biology unit led by Obaid Siddiqi had gained worldwide reputation for their work on olfaction in Drosophila. The unit became a space for young scientists from around the world to come and learn. One of them, John Carlson, spent a few months at TIFR before heading to Yale, where he soon established himself in the field. An extract from his 2012 Journal of Neurogenetics article.
