Bio:

A 1963 Graduate of the NYU School of Medicine Honors Program, Todaro developed the 3T3 cell line in the laboratory of Howard Green and was later co-formulator of the oncogene hypothesis. Active with many notable achievements in the research of cell growth regulation and in the field of biotechnology, Todaro is a Professor of Pathobiology at the University of Washington. He also served as a Laboratory Chief at the National Cancer Institute of the National Institutes of Health and was elected to the National Academy of Sciences.
