The Noble Prize winning scientist who helped discover the molecular structure of DNA made another breakthrough Thursday, this time as the subject of research. James Watson, 79, became the first person to receive his own personal genome map, a breakdown of his DNA that could show illnesses he’s predisposed to contracting.

“I knew I was risking possible anxiety when I saw it,” said Watson, who was presented the map during a ceremony at Baylor College of Medicine. “But it’s much more that if I don’t sleep at night it’s due to thinking about Iraq rather than about my genome.”
