[ExI] Multi-millionaire funds gene sequencing to find genes for mathematical genius

[John Grigg]

"Jonathan Rothberg founded two genetic-sequencing companies and sold them
for hundreds of millions of
dollars.<http://www.nature.com/news/root-of-maths-genius-sought-1.14050>He
helped to sequence the genomes of a Neanderthal man and James Watson,
who co-discovered DNA’s double helix. Now, entrepreneur Jonathan Rothberg
has set his sights on another milestone: finding the genes that underlie
mathematical genius."
