Douglas Scott Falconer

Douglas Scott Falconer FRS FRSE (10 March 1913 in Oldmeldrum, Aberdeenshire – 23 February 2004 in Edinburgh)[1] was a Scottish geneticist known for his work in quantitative genetics.

[2] Falconer's book Introduction to quantitative genetics was written in 1960 and became a valuable reference for generations of scientists.

[3] Falconer graduated with first class honors in zoology from the University of St Andrews in 1940.

[6] Later research using these mice has led to the discovery of reelin, a protein playing important roles in corticogenesis, neuronal migration, and plasticity.
