    Great: and starts the morning programming with a male scientist talking about sequencing DNA (Life Scientific). He says Cambridge is the home of DNA because of Crick and Watson: so 's uncredited yet again.

    On let’s hear it for Florence Bell who took 1st X-ray pics of DNA whilst at back in 1938 & paved way for later work of . Sadly though, as this headline shows, it was not Bell’s science that stunned local press!

  4. Rosalind Franklin, chemist & X-ray crystallographer, was born in 1920. Her work on X-ray diffraction images of DNA helped lead to the discovery of the structure of DNA, but her efforts were only recognised posthumously.

  5. For , we celebrate . Franklin is best known for her work on the X-ray diffraction images of DNA that led to the discovery of the DNA double helix.

  6. "But science and everyday life cannot and should not be separated." Quote: Co-discoverer of DNA double helix structure. Happy 2022, from all of us at GenQA.

    Next stop for : Rome, for the big ‘bake-out’! will sit in a vacuum chamber at 35°C for two weeks ♨️. Why? To clean the rover as much as possible from organic molecules so they don’t interfere with the search for life measurements on .
