Peter Sellers Memoriam, 1930-2014

 

Peter Sellers was a pioneering mathematician whose research contributed significantly to the first computer search/matching algorithm for DNA. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania in 1965 and joined the Rockefeller University in 1966. Collected here are materials related to Dr. Sellers and his work, including exhibits inspired by The University's Merrill W. Chase Historic Scientific Instrument Collection, of which he was devoted curator.
