1965
Zuckerkandl and Pauling christen the Molecular Clock
Although Emile Zuckerkandl had articulated the idea of the
molecular
clock earlier, in their paper,"Evolutionary Divergence and
Convergence in
Proteins," for the 1965 Evolving Genes and Proteins
Conference,
Zuckerkandl and Linus Pauling coined the term "molecular
clock."
