Beautiful minds "Rosalind Franklin"

In the times of the big wars and the beginnings of the technology revolutions, the woman were not involved in many subjects because they were discriminated by the man, by the world of man, supposedly the females weren't able to do the same thing or do things like the males do, obviously in that time they didn't know that was really wrong the woman and the man can do the same things because they are the same the both are humans.

Rosalind Franklin (25 July 1920- 16 April 1958) was one of this kind woman that fought for her gender. She was a great English chemist and X-ray crystallographer, one of the few people able to read a X-ray to the perfection in her time, and she was a woman, it was big deal be in science and female at that time, only few woman can do that and be so important like Rosalind was. She was from England and she studied University of Cambridge.

The most important things that she did, was read and interpret the X-ray of DNA made it by Watson and Crick discovering the double helix of the DNA. She could be the second woman to win the Nobel prize in physiology or medicine in 1962, but the Nobel committee does not make posthumous nominations.

I liked because... well i really do not know why i like her, its hard to say, but since the first time i heard about her i was fascinated with her, be so important in her subject, that was simple amazing! and solve problems related with DNA (my favorite subject) made she more special for me.
