Rosalind Franklin (1920 – 1958)
A British biophysicist, she photographed the structure of DNA in 1951. Her famous image “Photo 51” proves that DNA has a double-helix structure.
Watson and Crick used her results without crediting her and received the Nobel Prize in 1962. Franklin died at 37, without recognition during her lifetime.
