First DNA Sequencer

The references already mention this but the main article does not. I think the main article should more clearly include that he created (or co-created / co-invented) the first automated DNA sequencer in 1987. It's of historic importance considering how DNA sequencers became important lateron. 2A02:8388:1641:5500:8207:8CE:DF2:AB90 (talk) 11:21, 10 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
