was an english molecular biologist and neuroscientist, and most noted for being one of two co-discoverers of the structure of DNA molecule in 1953 together with James Watson
for their discoveries concerning the molecular structure of nucleic acids and its significance for information transfer in living material he won the nobel prize *in 1962* with James Watson.... :S
During the remainder of his career, he held the post of J.W. Kieckhefer Distinguished Research Professor at the salk Institute for biological studies in la jolla, california.

James Watson
James Watson born April 6, 1928 is an American molecular biologist, geneticist, and zoologist, best known as one of the co-discoverers of the structure of DNA with Francis Crick
In 1956, Watson became a junior member of harvard university's Biological Laboratories, holding this position until 1976, promoting research in molecular biology. Between 1988 and 1992, Watson was associated with the national Institutes of help, helping to establish the Human genome project .Watson has written many science books, including the seminal textbook The Molecular Biology of the Gene *1965* and his bestselling book the double helix*1968* about the DNA structure discovery.
Book : The Double Helix |
In 1968, Watson wrote The Double Helix one of the modern Library's100 best Nonfiction book\- The account is the sometimes painful story of not only the discovery of the structure of DNA but the personalities, conflicts and controversy surrounding their work. Watson's original title was to have been Honest Jim in that the book recounts the discovery of the double helix from his point of view and included many of his private emotional impressions at the time. The book changed the way the public viewed scientists and the way they work

She studied Chromosomes and how they change during reproduction in maize
she developed theories to explain the repression or expression of genetic information from one generation of maize plants to the next....
