Franklin's lab notes show she grasped the significance of her DNA images, according to a new essay.

A new analysis suggests that Rosalind Franklin, who took the first images of DNA’s double-helix structure, knew far more about her data than her colleagues later claimed.

A new study of Rosalind Franklin’s Photograph 49 says she suspected DNA’s helical shape and took her famous Photograph 51 to pin it down.
