Ah, this seems like a nice dude.
<The Eighth Day of Creation> has two nice paragraphs about his work. He was shy and quiet, and didn't boast about his slow and steady progress, possibly because of this he only had a junior fellowship and at some point some people wanted to kick him out of the lab somewhere between 1948 - 1952, quoted at: https://sandwalk.blogspot.com/2013/11/fred-sanger-1918-2013.html

This is a good video especially is you know <Cambridge>, to help situate Sanger's places a bit. Good Sanger quote at the end:
> I always tell people, it is much easier to get the second one than the first
