But James Watson and Francis Crick's claim was a valid one, for they had in fact discovered the structure of DNA, the chemical that encodes instructions for building and replicating almost all ...

“Solid-state nanopores are compatible with wafer-scale manufacturing processes and therefore offer a significant advantage ...

Previous work has been limited to 2D ... DNA structures are basically a mould or a scaffold on which another nanostructure can be built – in this case a replica of the original. But that ...

"3D electronic architectures that imitate the natural 3D structure of the brain ... researchers can get long DNA strands to fold themselves into 2D or 3D shapes. Snippets of DNA stapled onto ...

Earlier that morning, in the nearby Cavendish laboratory, the two scientists had discovered the structure of deoxyribonucleic acid, or DNA. This discovery changed the world of science and medicine ...

Her colleague Maurice Wilkins was independently pursuing DNA’s structure, and she had grown so miserable there, largely because of their rivalry, that she had found a position at another university.

The first crystal structure of an alternative DNA shape from the insulin gene has been revealed by a UCL-led research team. DNA is widely accepted to be formed of two strands that wind around one ...

The strategy avoids damage to the 2D substrate, allows for multiple types of nanoparticles ... physical assembly techniques cannot easily match. By using DNA to modulate both structure and function, ...

A piece that aired on NPR this week about the discovery of DNA's structure neglected to mention the significant contribution of Rosalind Franklin to that scientific milestone. And now some ...
