It is particularly pleasing to see how purely basic research, originally aimed at testing the genetic identity of different cell types in the body, has turned out to have clear human health prospects. – John Gurdon
I did research when I was pregnant with my first daughter and was horrified by the chemicals in products, even those meant for babies. I would have to go to 50 different places just to get my house and my kid clean. – Jessica Alba
Research to me is as important or more important than the writing. It is the foundation upon which the book is built. – Leon Uris

Our research led on to other things, such as the fact that exchange rates are not lognormally distributed. – John Hull

Prior to penicillin and medical research, death was an everyday occurrence. It was intimate. – Katherine Dunn
I never eat where the hotel recommends. I do my own research and then try the most highly rated options. – L’Wren Scott
I quickly discovered that scientists go where the funding is, so I knew I had to start a research foundation. If you don’t raise money and provide research grants, you’ll never attract scientists, and if scientists aren’t working on a cure, there isn’t going to be a cure. – Kathy Giusti
My research, even before 1972, moved in directions beyond those cited for the Nobel Memorial Prize. Most of it, in one way or another, deals with information as an economic variable, both as to its production and as to its use. – Kenneth Joseph Arrow

A lot of the basic research that helped us figure out fracking came from the federal government. – Lisa Murkowski

If genetic research doesn’t seemed to have lived up to its therapeutic promise, it’s because sequencing is just too slow and expensive. – Luke Nosek
We went to church every Sunday. I do think it’s my duty to give back. That’s why I’m involved with St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital and the Make-a-Wish Foundation. – Jesse McCartney
