Working under the the supervision of Maurice Wilkins and Rosalind Franklin at King's College in London, postgraduate student Raymond Gosling took what was identified as Photograph 51 which was critical to identifying the structure of DNA, for which Watson and Crick later won the Nobel Prize, while neither Gosling nor Rosalind Franklin were acknowledged.
Recorded at The Invisible Studios, West Hollywood, in June of 2011.
Photograph 51 is part of L.A. Theatre Works’ Relativity Series featuring science-themed plays. Lead funding for the Relativity Series is provided by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, bridging science and the arts in the modern world.
