Francis Crick
English physicist, molecular biologist; co-discoverer of the structure of DNA
Francis Harry Compton CrickOM FRS[3][4] (8 June 1916 – 28 July 2004) was an English molecular biologist, biophysicist, and neuroscientist.
He, James Watson, Rosalind Franklin, and Maurice Wilkins played crucial roles in deciphering the helical structure of the DNA molecule.
Crick and Watson's paper in Nature in 1953 laid the groundwork for understanding DNA structure and functions.[5] Together with Maurice Wilkins, they were jointly awarded the 1962 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine "for their discoveries concerning the molecular structure of nucleic acids and its significance for information transfer in living material".[2][6]
Crick was an important theoretical molecular biologist and played a crucial role in research related to revealing the helical structure of DNA.
He is widely known for the use of the term "central dogm
