Timeline
Joseph Frank Sambrook (1 March 1939 – 14 June 2019 ) was a British molecular biologist known for his studies of DNA oncoviruses and the molecular biology of normal and cancerous cells.
Sambrook was educated at the University of Liverpool (BSc (hons) 1962) and obtained his PhD at the Australian National University in 1966.
He did postdoctoral research at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology (1966–67) and the Salk Institute for Biological Studies (1967–69).
In 1969 he was hired by James D. Watson to work at the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory in New York.
Watson has been reported to say this was the best hiring decision he ever made.
Joe was responsible for creating a combative creative environment at CSHL that fomented discovery.
Subsequently, he worked at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center (Dallas).
Sambrook is best known for his studies on DNA tumor viruses and the molecular biology of normal and neoplastic cells.
His Tumour Virus Group at Cold Spring Harbor identified and mapped all of the major genes of adenoviruses and SV40, determined their transcriptional control in infected and transformed cells, and elucidated the mechanism of integration of these viruses into the genome of the host cell.
He has also made important contributions to the understanding of intracellular traffic and protein folding and is an influential leader in the field of the molecular genetics of human cancer.
Sambrook is a former director of research at the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre in Melbourne.
He is also co-editor of Inspiring Science: Jim Watson and the Age of DNA and Life Illuminated: Selected Papers from Cold Spring Harbor Volume 2, 1972–1994.
All three books were published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press.
He was the founder and director of the Kathleen Cunningham Consortium for research into familial breast cancer, KConFab, that was established in 1995.
He was elected a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science in 2000.
and is a Fellow of the Royal Society.
Sambrook has published four editions of the best-selling, highly influential laboratory manual Molecular Cloning, the third in 2001 with David Russell and the fourth in 2012 with Michael R. Green.
In 2009 he was awarded the "Victorian Government Leadership and Innovation Award".
Sambrook had three children from his first marriage to Thelma, and a daughter with his second wife, Professor Mary-Jane Gething.
