Ian Wilmut led the research team at Roslin Institute that created Dolly the sheep in 1996, the first mammal cloned from an adult somatic cell using nuclear transfer. This groundbreaking achievement established Wilmut as the pioneer of modern cloning technology, though the spelling 'Wilmutt' in the option has an extra 't' - it should be 'Wilmut'.
