George Smith gave this piggy bank to one of his colleagues, Stephen Parmley, as a memento of an early experiment when working on phage display. Parmley had developed a vector, a particle used to inject DNA in living cells. The vector was named pIG3C. The experiment was unsuccessful, but the piggy bank became the laboratory mascot for decades.
The piggy bank was donated to the Nobel Prize Museum by Stephen Parmley in 2018. - Pristagare
