Francis Crick and James Watson won a Nobel prize for solving the DNA structure; however, this breakthrough discovery was the result of the work of several scientists during the course of 100 years 🌟 #DNADay #EASIGEN #Genomics #ResearchInfrastructures #HorizonEU

🔬 1944: Edwin Chargaff determined the ratio of the four nucleotides in DNA, and comparing the same experiment between organisms concluded that DNA was responsible for genetic diversity 🔬 1951: Rosalind Franklin used X-ray crystallography to discover DNA's helical structure

🔬 1911: Thomas Hunt Morgan linked Mendel’s work on inheritance with chromosome knowledge using Drosophila melanogaster 🔬 1928-1952: Key experiments by Frederick Griffith, Avery, MacLeod, McCarty, and Hershey & Chase revealed DNA as the genetic material

🔬 1869: Dr. Friedrich Miescher discovered DNA in human white blood cells 🔬 1919: Phoebus Levene identified the three major components of nucleotides: sugar, phosphate, and a nitrogenous base

🔬 Mid-1800s: Gregor Mendel's pea plant experiments revealed how traits are inherited, laying the foundation for genetics. Around the same time, Charles Darwin studied finches in the Galápagos and observed that traits can change, leading to his theory of natural selection
