This is not an ordinary table at the Eagle Pub in Cambridge UK! Here, James Watson and Francis Crick loved to lunch and discuss about the structure of DNA. After looking at “Photograph 51” by Rosalind Franklin they came to the conclusion to the double helical structure in 1953! 🧬 #history #science

🧬 Happy #DNADay!! 🧬
Today, we celebrate April 25th, a date that marks the discovery of DNA's double helix structure in 1953 and the completion of the Human Genome Project in 2003

To honor this day, I’ve made a short video about "Photograph 51." Have you heard of this play? Feel free to comment! 🧬
