There is an error.
Were there any other mistakes?
It was a bit of an omission.
I don't think there was any mention of the 12 years I spent as the director of the National Institutes of Health under three presidents, but that's okay.
We asked ChatGPT to comment on its error.
I apologize for any errors in the biography of Francis Collins.
As a language model, I am trained on a large dataset of text.
I may make mistakes or omissions.
I recommend fact-checking any information that I provide.
Don't worry.

So much of the driving force behind Collins' work is trying to understand what makes humans human, like at the most basic molecular level, but also beyond that.
Growing up in the 1950s, he was amazed by the recent discovery of the structure of DNA.
There were covers of Life magazine saying, discovering the secret of life.
Was it actually discovering the secret of life?
It's maybe a little over the top because I actually think there's more to life than just molecules.
But certainly if you want to talk the biological basis of life, yeah, this was discovering that.

And it is the same kind of molecule that all living things on this planet use.
