Figura eminente da ciência e da cultura portuguesa na segunda metade do século XX, o Padre Luís Archer notabilizou-se principalmente pela introdução do ensino e da investigação em genética molecular, e pelo impulso que deu aos estudos de bioética no nosso país. Para além de uma vasta obra científica em publicações especializadas, a sua actividade desdobrou-se ainda num amplo leque de iniciativas, tendo o seu nome ficado associado sobretudo à fundação e direcção do laboratório de genética molecular do Instituto Gulbenkian de Ciência, à série científica da revista Brotéria, que dirigiu durante quarenta anos, à Sociedade Portuguesa de Genética, a várias outras sociedades e academias científicas que integrou, e, ainda, às importantes comissões nacionais e europeias de bioética em que participou activamente.
