Inequities in science?
Research the biography of Rosalyn Franklin. Find and print an article (print the entire article, which should be
fewer than 5 pages) about her contributions to the discovery of the double helix model of DNA. Answer the
following questions based on your article:
1. What were Rosalyn Franklin’s contributions to the double helix model of DNA?

4. Why do you think that “Watson and Crick” are today associated with the DNA double helix, and rarely
Franklin?
