Who was the lead principle investigator for the privately funded genome research team?

The answer is: Hamilton O. Smith see wikipedia about him.If I understand your question correctly.He was Nobel Laureate (that means: He was the Nobel prize winner sometime in his past - actually 1978)Read Wikipedia on the Human Genome Project. Your are probably referring to that - I'm making sure, because there are many genome research projects, there is even a magazine named for the field, doing research into the genome of plants, ants, and elephants.The Human Genome Project - started as an international government funded project. Government funded - means that many governments like the governments of the US and the French and the Israelis and many others payed for it.Almost at the same, a company decided to pay for (to fund) their own research. That's probably what you mean when you ask about the "Privately funded genome research team".The head of the company was Dr. J. Craig Venter and his company Celera Corporation read about it on wikipedia too.There is a book about the competition between these two projects called The Genome war. By the way, Genome in Yiddish means Hell - the horrible place where souls that don't behave well go to. The original Hebrew word for that place is Shoul...Hope this helped save your pants.Moshe
