Andrew Rambaut
Man of Mystery! All the others have put themselves out there to pump the paper - but Rambaut stayed in the shadows. That's intriguing. As a next generation computer-whiz, he has gone to some length to conceal his image. Turns out he's the most handsome of the lot. Though there's only one photo to judge by - on his Twitter account, which he doesn't use.
Whereas Lipkin was bursting at the seams with on-the-record blabbering, Rambaut likes his privacy. That's fine, but as a key ingredient of the Prox-O-5, you're famous for all time Andrew - whether you like it or not.

So as author of the greatest academic fraud of all time and a Feb 1 Teleconferencer, what doesdoes, Rambautlet's call you the other Prince Andrew bring to this world-deciding table? He's
(Ee)volutionary biologist specializing in emerging human viral pathogens. pathogens
Funny how the more human viral pathogenicists like Rambaut emerged as a fund-attracting force (largely funded by Wellcome) - the more emerging human viral pathogens emerged.
Rambaut is a genomic surveillance enthusiast - whose interests naturally include population engineering - which gets to crux of what this is all about - a bio-state coup. He features as a Friendly Genius on Andersen's Scripps website (along with Garry).
First person Holmes called with the sequence - published on Rambaut's website.
SAGE member (with Jeremy Farrar), futurist (as is Farrar), funded by Wellcome.
