Anyone else mad they didn't give her a Nobel prize? I always cringe whenever biology books mention Watson and Crick as the discoverers of the double helix structure.

rosalind didn't discover shit. her student did the crystallography. she was just a supervisor meaning she had little to nothing to do with the project. you would know this if you went through grad school. watson and crick figured out the key part which is base pairing.

She told them it's structure wasn't helical. Why should she be rewarded for discovering the structure?

I always cringe whenever they add the obligatory Rosalind footnote, literally due to media pressure. Her data isn't even the only set the Watson and Crick used to develop the model. The prize was awarded for the model, not the data.

There has been a lot of frauds. Some cases are knwn only within their fields. There is just too much national prestige involved.

My professor made sure to tell us how stunning and brave she was and how unnecessary men have been in every scientific breakthrough

Watson says truthful things about race and genetics so they attempt to change history to credit a Jewish woman with his greatest discovery which also has the feminist/minority angle.

Didn't she try to bar Watson and Crick from accessing the data?
If so then fucking lol, she deserves to be a footnote.

Even better, her own student called her on her bullshit.
