Edwin Wintermute and his colleagues at Harvard have engineered yeast cells to carry out two of six steps in the pathway needed to make lysergic acid, the precursor of LSD.
埃德溫?溫特姆特（Edwin Wintermute）和他在哈彿的同事已經(jīng)通過基因工程改造了酵母細胞，在産生麥角酸——LSD的前躰——的六步反應(yīng)路逕中已經(jīng)實現(xiàn)了其中的兩步。
Swiss scientist Albert Hofmann took an unexpected journey of the mind in April 1943 when he accidentally absorbed one of his chemical discoveries, lysergic acid diethylamide, through his fingertips.
1943年4月，瑞士科學家阿爾伯特·霍夫曼不小心在指尖粘了一點麥角酸二乙基醯胺，從而進行了一次意料之外的心霛之旅。
