It is James Watson and Francis CricK In March 1953, Watson and Crick deduced the double helix structure of DNA Watson, Crick, and Wilkins were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1962 for their research on the structure of nucleic acids.
Maurice Wilkins and Rosalind Franklin
James Watson and Francis Crick are technically the ones who discovered the structure, and are given credit. However, multiple people played crucial roles in this finding, including Rosalind Franklin.
When the Nobel Prize was awarded, she had already died of cancer, and the Nobel Prize is not awarded posthumously.
X-ray diffraction studies by Rosalind Franklin and Maurice Wilkins.
They solved the structure of DNA.
1962
He didn't. DNA was already known before Crick, Watson, Wilkins and Franklin discovered its chemical structure in the early 50s. Crick and Watson published in "Nature" in April of 1953.
Together with Maurice Wilkins and Rosalind Franklin they discovered the structure of DNA.
The discovery of DNA's double helix structure along with James Watson and Francis Crick.
The 1962 the Nobel Prize was awarded to Francis Harry Compton Crick, James Dewey Watson, and Maurice Hugh Frederick Wilkins. The prize was awarded to them for discovering the molecular structure of nucleic acids in DNA.
