James Watson is one of many famous scientists who have impacted our world. With the help of Francis Crick, they discovered a life changing element which was DNA structure. Their discovery changed how we think today and our understanding of how our body works. James Watson, Molecular Biologist, Geneticist, and Zoologist, won a nobel prize with Francis Crick, a Molecular Biologist, Biophysicist, and Nutritionist. His Childhood James Watson was born in Chicago, Illinois on April 6th, 1928.…

The story of Rosalind Franklin not only emphasizes the important role od women in the field of science, it also discusses the challenges and obstacles that woman of science faced and continue to face. Although Watson and Crick worked to study the structure of DNA, they would not have been able to complete their research without the Photo 51; a photo stolen from Rosalind Franklin. Although Franklin was so integral to the discovery of the structure of DNA and her work was stolen from her, she was…

Rosalind Franklin an English chemist and X-ray crystallographer was born on July 25, 1920 in London, England. She was most known for her contributions to the discovery of the DNA structure. She was born into an influential Jewish family and at an early age she excelled in her studies, at the age of fifteen she discovered her love to become a scientist. She later on attended Newnham College in 1938 where she studied chemistry. Upon graduating she worked with Jacques Mering who taught her X-ray…

Whether genetically modifying babies is right or wrong is something that could be debated depending on an individual's religious values. Several people dispute about the pros and cons to each side, however; genetically inserting, deleting, or changing genes should be banned in the United States because it is not fair to create super babies, it costs a significantly large amount of money, and it is not safe to have advanced humans in our society. Genetically modifying babies in the United…

In 1951 he went to the Zoological Station at Naples and met Maurice Wilkins and saw crystalline DNA’s X-rays diffraction pattern for the first time3. That fall he moved his research to the University of Cambridge’s Cavendish Laboratory2. He met Francis Crick there too who shared his interest in puzzling out the structure of DNA1. Model showed the DNA molecule could duplicate itself3. They published their findings in the British journal Nature in April-May 19532. James D. Watson is famous because…

Is the perfect child one that can be designed exactly to society’s wants or one that is naturally itself and not genetically modified? This is a large debate that has many opinions, both for and against the idea of designing embryos. In reality, there are many positives to genetically modifying embryos, which outweighs the negatives such as moral reasons. One example of a positive to this process is that it prevents a disease within the mitochondria. According to the New York Times, “Roughly…

regains its love for its self (Poetry Explication). It only seems appropriate that Kinnell use St. Francis because he is the saint of animals (St. Francis of Assisi). When he speaks of “the bud” in the beginning of the poem it is almost like he is talking about all things that grow. All things start out small and have to grow up or bloom at some point, with potential of things to come (Saint Francis and the Sow). When he references “loveliness” in line six it is foreshadowing to the end when…

This place of limitless potential resides closer than a lot of people thinks, but at times, we get totally blinded by the fast pace of a crazy world full of advice about how to live our own lives. If we consciously or unconsciously decided to follow this hectic rhythm of life, we may ending losing our capacity to find this wonderful place. Even though we may lose our way to this paradise at…
