James Dewey Watson was born in Chicago, Ill., on April 6th, 1928, as the only son of James D. Watson, a businessman, and Jean Mitchell. His father's ancestors were originally of English descent and had lived in the midwest for several generations. His mother's father was a Scottish-born taylor married to a daughter of Irish immigrants who arrived in the United States about 1840. Young Watson's entire boyhood was spent in Chicago where he attended for eight years Horace Mann Grammar School and for two years South Shore High School. He then received a tuition scholarship to the University of Chicago , and in the summer of 1943 entered their experimental four-year college. In 1947, he received a B.Sc. degree in Zoology. During these years his boyhood interest in bird-watching had matured into a serious desire to learn genetics. This became possible when he received a Fellowship for graduate study in Zoology at Indiana University in Bloomington, where he received his Ph.D. degree in Zoology in 1950. At Indiana, he was deeply influenced both by the geneticists

From 1951 to 1953, he did postgraduate research with the British biophysicist Francis Crick at the Cavendish Laboratory at the University of Cambridge. Based on work done at the laboratory of the British biophysicist Maurice Wilkins , Watson and Crick worked out the double helix structure of the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecule, a substance that transmits the genetic characteristics from one generation to the next. Experimental proof for their model was later provided by the American biochemist Arthur Kornberg . For their work on the DNA molecule, Watson, Crick , and Wilkins shared the 1962 Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine. In 1968, Watson became director of the Cold Springs Harbor Laboratory of Quantitative Biology, in New York State. Watson wrote

April 6, 1928, Chicago, Ill., U.S.), American geneticist and biophysicist who played a crucial role in the discovery of the molecular structure of deoxyribonucleic acid ( DNA ), the substance that is the basis of heredity. For this accomplishment he was awarded the 1962 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine with Francis Crick and Maurice Wilkins Watson enrolled at the University of Chicago when only 15 and graduated in 1947. From his virus research at Indiana University (Ph.D., 1950), and from the experiments of microbiologist Oswald Avery, which proved that DNA affects hereditary traits, Watson became convinced that the gene could be understood only after something was known about nucleic acid molecules. He learned that scientists working in the Cavendish Laboratories at the University of Cambridge were using photographic patterns made by X rays that had been shot through protein crystals to study the structure of protein molecules.

Search Watson "grew up" in the famous " phage group ," of which his advisor was a founder. Phage group guru Max Delbruck was a mentor to Watson. Watson spent much time at Cold Spring Harbor in the late '40s and '50s. In 1950, Watson spent a year in Copenhagen, working with Herman Kalckar Caspersson. In 1951 he went to Cambridge University's famed Cavendish laboratory, headed by Sir Lawrence Bragg, to learn crystallography. There, he teamed up with 35-year-old grad student Francis Crick to work out a model for the structure of DNA, the double helix. They published this model in Nature in 1953. Watson shared the 1962 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine with Francis Crick and Maurice Wilkins. At the time he was a professor at Harvard, where he ran a joint lab with Walter Gilbert, who later was to receive the Nobel Prize in 1980. In 1968 he became director of Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory . He commuted back and forth between CSHL and Harvard until 1976, when he became the Lab's director full-time. From 1988 to 1992, Watson directed the National Center for Human Genome Research. In 1994, he became President of Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. Vita Born April 6, 1928, Chicago, IL

James Watson James Dewey Watson, one of the most important researchers in the field of genetics, was born on April 6, 1928, in Chicago, Illinois. Being a very good student, he enrolled at the University of Chicago when he was only 15 years old and graduated in 1947. However, both Cal. Tech and Harvard University turned him down for their graduate programs. So he ended up in Indiana, where he finished a Ph. D. in Genetics, and received a National Research Fellowship to spend a year in Copenhagen. At a conference held at the Zoological Station in Naples, he met Maurice Wilkins, whose work convinced him to direct his research towards the structure of nucleic acids and proteins. In 1950, Watson joined Cavendish Laboratories where many other important people involved in archeology, such as Francis Crick , Maurice Wilkins, and Rosalind Franklin were trying to determine the makeup of DNA. They had already determined that DNA was a molecule with two "strands" that formed a tight pair. It was Crick and Watson who made the next big discovery. They proposed that DNA was a winding helix in which pairs of bases held the strands together. This model of the DNA double helix became an important item of research in the areas of Biochemistry and Molecular Genetics. In 1968, Watson published his DNA discovery and entitled it

Our people paper consists of the two men, which discovered the DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) molecule in 1951, describing the structure as a double helix. These scientists are known as Dr. Francis Harry Compton Crick and Dr. James Dewey Watson. Francis Harry Compton Crick was born on June 8, 1916 in Northampton, England. He is the elder son of Harry Crick and Annie Elizabeth Wilkins. His brother A.F. Crick is a doctor in New Zealand. At the age of 24, Francis Harry Compton Crick married Ruth Doreen Dodd. They had a son Michael F.C. Crick who is also a scientist. The marriage however only lasted seven years, from 1940-1947. Two years later in 1949, Francis Crick married Odile Speed. They are currently and have two daughters, Gabrielle and Jacqueline Crick and reside in a home named "The Golden Helix." Francis Crick's education began at Northampton Grammar School and Mill Hill School in London. He studied physics at University College in London and received a B.Sc. in 1937. He tried to pursue a Ph.D. but was prevented because of the-war in 1939. Then finally in 1954, he received his Ph.D. at Caius College in Cambridge and worked on a thesis called "X-ray diffraction: polypeptides and proteins." In 1951, Francis Crick met James Dewey Watson, who was 23 years of age. This is when worked together on the DNA molecule's structure discovering it as the double helix.

Eleven have won the Nobel Prize in the last decade alone. Of the 74 Laureates, 25 have won in Physics , 22 in Economic Sciences , 14 in Chemistry , 11 in Physiology or Medicine and two in Literature Michelson was the first American to win the Nobel Prize in any of the sciences. Six Laureates are currently members of the faculty: James Heckman (Economic Sciences, 2000), Robert Lucas (Economic Sciences, 1995), Robert Fogel (Economic Sciences, 1993), Gary Becker (Economic Sciences, 1992), Ronald Coase (Economic Sciences, 1991) and James Cronin (Physics, 1980). James Heckman , a Professor in Economics and Public Policy, studies methodologies used to measure the impact of social programs, such as minimum-wage legislation and anti-discrimination law. He shared the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences for work on analyzing selective samples. Robert Lucas Robert Fogel , a Professor in the Graduate School of Business, shared the award for applying economics and statistics to the study of history. In his work on slavery in the United States, Fogel has argued that the market would not have ended slavery, as it remained a profitable and efficient system for slave owners.
