Although this was three years before Wilhelm Johannsen used the word " gene " to describe the units of hereditary information, De Vries had introduced the word " pangene " for the same concept already in 1889, and etymologically the word " genetics " has parallels with Darwin's concept of pangenesis.

Pangene was formed within and spun-out from SRI International, formerly Stanford Research Institute, Menlo Park, CA . Zarling co-founded PGC as a spin-out company from SRI International s pharmaceutical drug development / genomics / cancer programs in the SRI Life Sciences Division, where he was a manager and program director.
