DNA

The "most beautiful experiment in biology" was performed by Meselson and Stahl in 1957

Watson and Crick solved the structure of DNA and everyone lived happily ever after, right? Wrong. That was just the opening argument.

DNA

The discovery of the DNA double-helix was the culmination of decades of work from numerous contributors

History is written by victors, and that statement couldn't be more true than it is in the case of Watson and Crick's 'discovery' of the DNA double helix.

Proteomics

There are lot's of cool new ways to measure the proteome!

High throughput proteomics could revolutionize our understanding of human disease, but it's going to take some major innovations to get us there!

Proteomics

Proteomics based MCEDs are coming in hot and will probably hit the market sooner than anyone thinks

Proteomics is coming to the oncology market faster than any of you think. This paper shows why.

Linus Pauling proposed a triple helical structure for DNA in 1953. Here's why he got it so wrong

The kaleidoscopic image below is the triple helix Linus Pauling proposed as the structure of DNA in February 1953. Here's why he got it so wrong:

The evidence that Epstein-Barr Virus can cause multiple sclerosis is mounting

It has been hypothesized that infection with Epstein-Barr Virus can result in the development of multiple sclerosis. We now have good evidence that this is true.

DNA

Did you know that there was a high quality diffraction of B-DNA made a year before Rosalind Franklin and Raymond Gosling generated photo 51?

Elwyn Beighton and William Astbury generated a nearly flawless diffraction of B-DNA in 1951, a full year ahead of Franklin and Gosling. They never shared or published it.
