Walter (Main Investigator), gave credit to Carmela Sidrauski
his Post-Doc. He said if it were not for her, they would not have looked at it. The chemical itself was kicked out by a massive screening of small molecules, but originally not looked at because it was not very soluble.
I suspect it wasn't that graying old man that discovered that molecule, but that man's brilliant but underpaid post-doc that discovered that molecule.
