Who
From 21 September, visitors to the Whipple Museum will encounter an example of “guerilla history” - a blue plaque from nearby Bene’t Street which was repeatedly graffitied to acknowledge Rosalind Franklin’s enormous contribution to our understanding of genetics. The plaque will go on display for the first time, and will be exhibited alongside Franklin’s own handwritten DNA research notes from early 1953.
