variation.

The IGB, which has made the University of Illinois a leader in interdisciplinary research in genomics, would not exist without Lewin's vision and energy. Lewin served as the IGB director for eight years, from its founding until last year.

"The creation of the IGB has been a major factor in making the University of Illinois a leading institution in 21st century biology, and Harris was instrumental in that," says Robinson.

In 2010 Lewin also received the Wolf Award (described by some as the Nobel Prize in Agriculture) for his bovine leukemia work. Lewin also is a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Agriculture and Forestry and is a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
