Black and white picture of three older people. Text says From 'mad sessions' to a molecular bio revolution
Matthew Cobb's new biography of Francis Crick paints a vivid picture of one of the most fascinating biologists of the 20th century.
The latest issue of The Biologist features an exclusive extract exploring Crick's work with Sydney Brenner:

Cover of 'The Dawn Fisherman' - new book by Kersten Hall and Ralf Dahm telling the story of how Swiss scientist Friedrich Miescher discovered DNA
With coauthor Ralf Dahm, am looking forward to telling Royal Society of Chemistry Historical Group how, nearly 100 years before #jameswatson & #franciscrick double-helix, Friedrich Miescher discovered DNA - only to die aged 51 crushed by sense of failure…all told in our new book…#SpringerNature 2026

Review of Matthew Cobb's "magnificent biography":
"Complex, energetic, freethinking, dazzling, and bohemian, Crick was also ruthless, immature, misogynistic, arrogant, and careless."

"Co-Discoverer" doing a lot of heavy lifting here.
Neither Watson, nor #FrancisCrick would have made the discovery without seeing #RosalindFranklin /#RaymondGosling 's "photo 51" showing the double helix structure.

Scientists may need new theories and data to explain how the miracle of life occurred on the earth.
Is #FrancisCrick & #LeslieOrgel's #panspermia theory a possible solution?

🧬🧬 Happy DNA Day 🧬🧬 ! Today, the Biodiversity Genomics Lab @sgn.one is celebrating the fascinating world of #DNA and the amazing scientists #JamesWatson, #FrancisCrick, #MauriceWilkins, #RosalindFranklin who unraveled its 🧬 structure! The picture shows the precipitated DNA of a 🐬 using alcohol&salt.

#JamesWatson & #FrancisCrick claimed to have determined the double helix structure of #DNA #OnThisDay in 1953 but they stole the work of #RosalindFranklin; today, #DNAtesting is a very useful & very problematic tool, per this blog post:
