Sir Your Special Report “Credit where credit's due” ( Nature 440 , 591 – 592 ; 2006 ) is critical of the extent of Ian Wilmut's claims to credit for Dolly the cloned sheep, as well as of authorship issues connected with the publication of her creation ( Nature 385 , 810 – 813 ; 1997 ). Wilmut has modestly stated that his role in the research was mainly a supervisory one, and that others, principally Keith Campbell, deserved more of the intellectual credit. . © 2006 Nature Publishing Group
