His full name was supposed to be Edward Butts Lewis Jr., but the parents forgot to fill out his birth certificate.〔(http://www.amphilsoc.org/sites/default/files/proceedings/1500213.pdf )〕 Lewis graduated from E. L. Meyers High School. He received a BA in Biostatistics from the University of Minnesota in 1939, where he worked on ''Drosophila melanogaster'' in the lab of C.P. Oliver. In 1942 Lewis received a Ph.D. from California Institute of Technology (Caltech), working under the guidance of Alfred Sturtevant. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Edward B.
