  • The discovery of the structure of the DNA double helix was one of the most important of the 20th century. In this educational video, explore Watson and Crick’s quest to understand DNA’s structure, and Rosalind Franklin’s key insights via x-ray crystallography.
    Rarely seen archival footage is combined with interviews with some of today’s leading scientists to bring this Nobel Prize-winning discovery and all of its scientific implications to life.

    All I can say is thank you Rosalind Franklin. She was one of a kind and still isn't credited enough for her work. In my opinion (the right one lol), she was the most important part of this puzzle. Also how come no one's talking about how absolutely gorgeous she is? She's literally the best, and no one knows about her.

    The "encoding" appears clear and simple on an abstract level, but I expect an overwhelmingly complex additional mechanims that give rise to macroscopic structures and large protein molecules. It was this hard match the bases together with each other, but then they somehow need to be matched during the "reading" process with other elements.

    Watson and Crick met in Cambridge, and using known information about genetics from Gregor Mendel's studies and Rosalind Franklin's now famous Photo 51 to determine that DNA is the main structure in genetics, and that it is shaped like a double helix.

      Michael Rosen but Rosalind couldn't make the DNA structure while Watson and Crick could, and that's why they won the Noble prize. It is true that they stole the data from Rosalind, and that it is unfair; but don't you think it's worth it for knowing how we are made and why we are like this? I think it is truly worth it.

    I feel the discovery took a team including, obviously, Franklin's work. Yet everyone did a part, and those that put 2+2 together got the recognition yet, the equation(work) was given (shared or stolen or whatever you name it)to them, not made/discovered by them. So Franklins is also the one who discovered the structure. Unfortunately, she dismissed the finding of Watson an crick as a double helix(just not the correct version at that time. Never fully dismiss work but put to the side and reference​ back if needed.

      "The X-ray work [Rosalind] did at King's is increasingly regard as superb. The sorting out of the A and B forms, by itself, would have made her reputation; even better was her 1952 demonstration, using Patterson superposition methods, that the phosphate groups must be on the outside of the DNA molecule....Rosalind's exemplary courage and integrity were apparent to all when, knowing she was mortally ill, she did not complain but continued working on a high level until a few weeks before her death"

    John Randall's actions towards Wilkins and Franklin should be looked into more deeply. Randall ran the King's department and gave opposing impressions about who was working under whom to Wilkins and Franklin, to which you allude briefly. It really messed things up for everyone at King's. And who showed the MRC report on Franklin's work to Crick?

    Okay but around 8:00 in it wasn't that Watson learned directly from Franklin.. what happened is that Watson learned from Wilkins about the photo Franklin took and memorized an imprint of what that looked like. He never asked her. He sketched a copy of it while on the train and immediately told Crick when he got back. I wouldn't say he stole in such black and white terms, however, he absolutely did not learn from her.

    How unusual that no matter how old they became and one could assume this about Rosalind Franklin also. They still retained a high degree of self awareness. I worked with 43 security officers and 4 of them did crosswords every other day even on the weekends and they are the most mentally sharp of the bunch. Just a thought. Isn't it unusual that the double helix dna structure fits perfectly into Marko Rodin's Vortex Based Mathematics Coil?
