Description:
On April 25, 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick published their groundbreaking discovery of the double helix structure of DNA, the molecule essential for passing on our genes and the ''secret of life.'' But their crucial breakthrough depended on the pioneering work of another biologist–Rosalind Franklin. She would never know that Watson and Crick had seen a crucial piece of her data without her permission. This was an X-ray image, ''Photo 51,'' that proved to be a vital clue in their decoding of the double helix.

50 years later, NOVA investigates the shocking truth behind one of the greatest scientific discoveries and presents a moving portrait of a brilliant woman in an era of male-dominated science. Sadly, Franklin never lived to see her vital role in the discovery vindicated. While Watson and Crick went on to win the Nobel Prize in 1962, Franklin died in 1958, at 37, from ovarian cancer; and the Nobel is not awarded posthumously.

Hear the inside story from Maurice Wilkins, the colleague who showed her crucial x-ray to Watson; Raymond Gosling, Franklin’s Ph.D. student with whom she made Photo 51; and Nobel Prize winner Sir Aaron Klug, Franklin’s last collaborator, who shows new evidence of just how close Franklin came to making the vital double helix discovery herself.

	Customer Reviews: Average Rating: Rating : - Making It Up to Rosalind This video is very informative, and I would recommend it to those who are interested in the history of one of the landmark discoveries of the last three generations. I did not know anything about x-ray crystallography, and this inspired me to read up on it. In view of James Watson's recent comments, maybe Rosalind Franklin does need some post-mortem defenders...but this video comes off in the vein of "those mean men! They were too stupid to develop their own theory, so they had to climb over a woman to come up with anything meaningful!". Power to Rosalind...may she receive the credit she deserves, but don't make her a victim! + See Full Customer Review
