  1. 25. April 2026: Nationaler DNA-Tag

    73 Jahre ist es inzwischen her, dass James Watson und Francis Crick an der Cambridge University anhand der Röntgenkristallografie-Bilder von Rosalind Franklin (die später beim Nobelpreis leer ausging) die Doppel-Helix-Struktur der DNA entdeckten. Am 25. April 1953 veröffentlichten sie ihr Modell unter dem Titel „A Structure for Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid“ erstmalig im Wissenschaftsjournal „Nature“. Als 2003 das Human Genome Project (HGP) abgeschlossen wurde, schlug das […]

  2. I just learned that #NationalDNAday in the #UnitedStates was yesterday. I hope it's not too late to celebrate with some eye-candy depicting the hydrogen-bonding of a guanine quadruplex found in #DNA 🧬 #telomeres.

  7. April 25 is #NationalDNADay so I’m sharing my portrait of Rosalind Franklin (1920 – 1958), #chemist & x-ray #crystallographer whose x-ray diffraction images were instrumental to discovering double-helix structure of #DNA, made important contributions to #carbon & #virus research, was 1 of the great scientists of the 20th century.⁠

    There’s a joke amongst scientists that goes, “What did Watson & Crick discover?”
