Rosalind Franklin (1920–1958) was a pioneering British chemist and X-ray crystallographer whose meticulous work provided critical insights into the structure of DNA. Her photograph 51, capturing the helical diffraction pattern of DNA fibres, was instrumental in revealing the molecule’s double-helix form, though her contributions were long overshadowed by others who built upon her data. Working […]
