Rosalind Franklin, Francis Crick And Maurice Wilkins
James Watson, Rosalind Franklin, Francis Crick and Maurice Wilkins were an unlikely group. They were a bird biologist, a coal structure expert, an architect for underwater mines, and a nuclear physicist. All contributed in different ways to better understand the structure of DNA and how it plays a part in passing on traits to offspring.
In their era different discoveries were just emerging, which laid a ground work for which they could work. Scientists had just discovered that traits were in something called chromosomes which had two components; proteins and DNA. New technology allowed them to do discover these things. Maurice Wilkins, the nuclear physicist, harnessed his expertise in order to make a visual picture of it. He used something
