Turing worked at Bletchley in the Government Code and Cypher School. He provided a number
of techniques which aided in the speeding the breakdown of the German Ciphers. He also played
a great role in the cracking of coded messages making the allies to have a win over Nazis.
Generally, he made a number of improvements in the modern computers (Cooper, Barry and Jan,
n.p). Besides the contribution of computers, he played a role in the introduction of mathematical
biology in the age of 33years from where he developed patterns as well as shapes in biological
organisms.
Margaret Dayhoff
Dr. Margaret Oakley Dayhoff was born in Philadelphia. She was an associate director of
the “National Biomedical Research Foundation” at the “Georgetown University Medical Center.”
She was also a great member in the medical center and was highly recognized in skills concerning
medical computer technology. Dayhoff has also being recognized for playing a key role in the
coming up with the Atlas of DNA sequences and structure which constituted a standard work on
proteins and DNA sequences (Strasser, 625). Dayhoff lays the basis of the knowledge on proteins
of different organisms in which researchers can borrow from and be able to understand evolution
and other related scientific processes.
The three pioneers aided greatly in the learning about microbiology. For example, Alan
Turing introduced the issue of Oracle computer which could be used in the viewing of microbes.
Florence helped in the sanitary operations reducing the growth of microbes thus seen to have an
idea about what the microbes could bring about. Lastly, Margaret Dayhoff brought the knowledge
about the DNA structures and sequences of microorganisms helping to understand much about the
composition of the microbes.
