Happy Birthday, Rosalind Franklin. She captured an X-ray diffraction image of DNA and stated that a helical structure was probable. Watson and Crick then created a detailed model based on her results. They initially received credit for the discovery and were awarded the Nobel Prize after her death.🧪

Was digging around for #Drosophila content and stumbled on this gem.
100% going to try this!
I know it looks ~ridiculous, but a brush-pencil combo (aka “a Darth Maul brush” as my grad student Owen calls it) makes fly-counting/data entry much more efficient! #DrosLife #Drosophila

An inspiring afternoon session at #SHIMR2025 Symposium.
Chaired by Dr Marion Hogg, the session began with Professor Tom Wishart offering a look into the proteomic profiling of #synapses, exploring how molecular vulnerability might shape #neurological stability.
