…what Sheldrake also means by materialist science, his second target which decrees that matter is the only reality. What Francis Crick calls the astonishing hypothesis that you, your joys, your sorrows, your memories, your ambitions, your personal identity and…

…don't yet know the full details, but we just need time to figure it out. When I was a student at Cambridge, Francis Crick and Sydney Brenner, who taught me molecular biology, who'd just cracked the genetic code, they said, you know, we'll have figured it…

…answer. The two unsolved problems of biology are development of organisms and consciousness. And Brenner said, I'm taking development. And Francis Crick said, I'm taking consciousness. And they said, we'll figure it out within 10 years or maybe 20. Well, that…

…it has a higher concentration of committed materialists than most, partly because of the ethos set in place by people like Francis Crick, who was a very... I knew him at Cambridge, and he was an extremely hardcore materialist. He was an extremely bright…

…for the Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal, PSYCOP. And his whole life was committed to this kind, like Francis Crick, like Richard Dawkins. There aren't so many of these old-style militant atheists around anymore. It was a kind of…

…the money goes into molecular medicine. In fact, they've centralized the laboratories of Medical Research Council at the Francis Crick Institute near St. Pancras Station in London. And interestingly, Francis Crick was a physicist who worked on crystallography…

…centralized the laboratories of Medical Research Council at the Francis Crick Institute near St. Pancras Station in London. And interestingly, Francis Crick was a physicist who worked on crystallography of DNA, but he was never a medical man. And so medicine,…

…to enforce a kind of dogmatically dictatorial mechanistic view on the whole of the nhs and on medicine and for some people Francis Crick was one, Richard Dawkins is another, and this chap at UCL is another. This is an ideological campaign. It's not really…

…memory exists the knowledge for hyperlight drives. And so it's this crazy idea that mushrooms are extremophiles. And you even have Francis Crick, who I know is also a former associate of yours, in 1973 writing a paper about directed panspermia. In 1981, he…

…laboratory had just started up, and they were terribly keen to recruit biochemistry graduates to become molecular biologists. So Francis Crick and Sydney Brenner, two of the leading molecular biologists, gave a series of private seminars in Brenner's rooms in…

…biochemistry. I was chosen as one of this select group. We were invited along for private evening seminars with the masters, Crick and Brenner. These were unbelievably bright men. Crick had already got the Nobel Prize. Between them, they'd just cracked the…

…haven't been solved yet is because the people who've worked on them and neither molecular biologists nor very clever. And so Crick said, I'm taking consciousness, and Brenner said, I'm taking development. And they said, we expect within 10 years or maybe…

…that really matters is medicine, and especially molecular medicine, looking at the molecular level. That's the basis of the Francis Crick Institute, in which the British Medical Research Council has centralized its activities, named after the discoverer of the…

…seminars given by molecular biologists. And I was one of a hand-picked group invited in the evenings to hang out with Francis Crick and Sydney Brenner. Both of them got the Nobel Prize, both of them eminent Cambridge biologists. And they were trying to…

…promising biochemists, to go into molecular biology. This was in 1963. And they explained their approach, and it was very clear. Francis Crick said, you know, we've figured out the genetic code in 10 years. He said, we've understood the basic key to life…
