Episode 3: Rosalind Franklin - Double Helix, Double Crossed

DNA - the building block of life itself. One of the greatest scientific discoveries of biology. And its iconic double helix structure was discovered by, of course, Watson and Crick... except for the fact that it absolutely wasn't. Rosalind Franklin was a Jewish woman who, in addition to being a child prodigy, saved lives during The Blitz, housed child refugees, and took one of science's most important photographs. Join us this week on STEMs and Seeds while we explore Rosalind Franklin's life!
