The Knight Foundation’s founder’s daughter lives in Racine. Her name is Marjorie Crane.
Christine Whitman of CFR is also closely connected with Racine, Wisconsin and Cornell, including sitting on the board of SC Johnson (what is the Wolf’s Head Society). Additionally, the President of Microsoft, Brad Smith, grew up in Racine and is the key advisor to the global elite for all COVID and election data.

NanoString Technologies
NanoString Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: NSTG) is a publicly held biotech company that specializes in development of cancer diagnostics tools.. anoString's "nCounter Analysis System" is based on a digital molecular barcoding technology invented by Dimitrov and Dunawa in Leroy Hood's lab at the Institute for Systems Biology (ISB), and became commercially available in 2008
Leroy Hood https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leroy_Hood
Hood has developed ground-breaking scientific instruments which made possible major advances in the biological sciences and the medical sciences....The protein sequencer, DNA synthesizer, peptide synthesizer, and DNA sequencer were commercialized through Applied Biosystems, Inc. and the ink-jet technology was commercialized through Agilent Technologies.[9][10] The automated DNA sequencer was an enabling technology for the Human Genome Project.[7] The peptide synthesizer was used in the synthesis of the HIV protease by Stephen Kent and others, and the development of a protease inhibitor for AIDS treatment.

Hood established the first cross-disciplinary biology department, the Department of Molecular Biotechnology (MBT), at the University of Washington in 1992,[16][8] and co-founded the Institute for Systems Biology in 2000.[11] Hood is credited with introducing the term "systems biology",[17] and advocates for "P4 medicine", medicine that is "predictive, personalized, preventive, and participatory."....In 2010 ISB partnered with the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center in Columbus, Ohio to establish the nonprofit P4 Medicine Institute (P4MI).... In 2012, P4 Medical Institute established an agreement with its first community health partner, PeaceHealth. PeaceHealth is a not-for-profit Catholic health care system, operating in a variety of communities in Alaska, Washington and Oregon.
The DNA sequencer was a critical technology for the Human Genome Project.[7][73] Hood was involved with the Human Genome Project from its first meeting, held at the University of California, Santa Cruz, in 1985. Hood became an enthusiastic advocate for The Human Genome Project and its potential.[1][51][75][52] Hood directed the Human Genome Center’s sequencing of portions of human chromosomes 14 and 15

Lots of stuff on that Edge page, including:

What a revelation the The Master Class in Synthetic Genomics was. In addition to being informative on so many literal levels it reinforced the mystery and wonder of the world. George Church and Craig Venter were generous to give us a glimpse of where we are today and fire the imagination of where we are going. It's all science but seems beyond science fiction — living forever, reprogramming genes, resurrecting extinct species. All told at SpaceX — a place where people are reaching for the stars, not just thinking about it but building rockets to take us there. Where Elon Musk contemplates the vastness of space and our tiny place in it, where we gained a perspective on the things that are very small and beyond the vision of our eyes. So small it's a wonder we even know they are there. Thanks for giving us a profound glimpse into the future.
