Ray Wu as Fifth Business: Deconstructing collective memory in the history of DNA sequencing.
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
The study of Ray Wu, who was a Chinese immigrant to the United States, provides a foundation for further critical scholarship on the heterogeneous histories of Asian American bioscientists, the sociality of their scientific works, and how the resulting knowledge produced is preserved in a scientific field's collective memory.
