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.
