My ask of any science enthusiasts who tell the story of Rosalind Franklin:
Don't make her life be about the DNA debacle. She died far too young, but she was a promising scientist in her own right, a mentor and scientific author.
Not for Watson or Crick, but for her legacy.

Her sister wrote my favorite essay about her. She points out that RF would have been famous even if she'd never looked at DNA

Remembering my sister Rosalind Franklin
Rosalind Franklin died of ovarian cancer in 1958 aged 37 years. Sympathy and feminism
have combined to give us her familiar image as a downtrodden woman scientist, brilliant
but neglected, a heroine t...

It’s finally out!
Our paper on the bacterial symbionts of three White Sea sponges is here.
A story that began in 2016 has reached its last chapter… or has it? We hope that by the time you finish our hefty tome — maybe around 2034 — we’ll release the sequel.

Taxonomically different symbiotic communities of sympatric Arctic sponge species show functional similarity with specialization at species level | mSystems
Sponges are regarded among the earliest multicellular organisms and the most ancient
examples of animal-bacterial symbiosis. The study of host-microbe interactions in
sponges has advanced rapidly due ...

Check it out! Three Arctic sponge species, six years of observation, and seven symbiotic bacteria—six of which belong to novel candidate genera. An odyssey that began in 2016 is now complete!
