Rosalind Franklin is most well known for her uncredited contribution to the discovery of the structure of DNA. In fact, her crucial photograph of its structure is the background of this page. For such an important part of such an impressive discovery, she isn't very well known. 
Rosalind Franklin, 1955, MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology
She didn't just do work in DNA. She made great contributions to other studies. She did research involving the micro-structures of coal before she worked on DNA. After her work with DNA, she changed to studying plant viruses.
In this blog, I will tell her story. I'll start with her childhood and tell the story of her life up until her untimely death. I'll also explain the chemistry behind her work. Read more to learn about this amazing scientist and what she's done for the world.
