| Summary: | In recent History of Science a controversy has been developed on the origins of the research on oncogenes, as a new discipline, due to the concession of the Dr. Josef Steiner Cancer Research Foundation Award, in 1988, to Dr. Barbacid, in view of the winners of the 1989 Nobel Prize in Medicine or Phisiology. The history of this case is approached through a sociological view, namely the professional anticipacionism. The documentary method, always present in cancer research (as it was the case when the Li-Fraumeni syndrome was determined), is able to recognize the new ideas and its degree of elaboration, from a historical perspective.
We supply a periodization of the discovery of the scientific fact that initiates the tumor formation. And we afford the phases of the elementary discoveries encapsulated in the history of the scientific program, using a historiographical tipology own to citation analysis. We understand the natural history of the case studying theoretically the demographic structure of the population of the Spanish scientific authors participating in this scientific research |
