Keith Henry Stockman Campbell (23 May 1954 – 5 October 2012)[1] was a British biologist who was a member of the team at Roslin Institute that in 1996 first cloned a mammal, a Finnish Dorset lamb named Dolly, from fully differentiated adult mammary cells.
[2][3][4][5][6][7] In 2008, he received the Shaw Prize for Medicine and Life Sciences jointly with Ian Wilmut and Shinya Yamanaka for "their works on the cell differentiation in mammals".
He started his education in Perth, Scotland, but, when he was eight years old, his family returned to Birmingham, where he attended King Edward VI Camp Hill School for Boys.
In July 1995 Keith Campbell and Bill Ritchie succeeded in producing a pair of lambs, Megan and Morag from embryonic cells, which had differentiated in culture.
In 1996, a team led by Ian Wilmut with Keith Campbell as the main contributor, used the same technique and shocked the world by successfully cloning a sheep from adult mammary cells.
