My name is Rosalind Franklin, I was born in London on July 25 of 1920 and (unfortunately) I died of ovarian cancer in London on April 16, 1958 when I was only 37 years old.

I grew up in an influential Jewish family in Notting Hill, London, where I displayed exceptional intelligence during my childhood, later wanting to be a scientist. I received education at several schools, including North London Collegiate School as well as others.

I became an universitarias at the University of Cambridge in 1938 when I was 18, where I studied Physical chemistry and graduated in 1941 where I spent a year working in the R. G. W Norris labs where I worked for the British Coal Utilisation Research Association to study the microscopic structures of different coals and carbons as a war effort.

I went to various other laboratories to investigate about the carbon structure, one of them being the lab of French engineer Jacques Mering at the Laboratoire Central des Services Chimique de L’Etat in Paris where I learned how to image carbon-based compounds using a technique called X-Ray Crystallography which was used to determined the structure of atoms in molecules.

In 1958 I studied the structure of plant viruses, especially tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) and poliovirus, where i made detailed X-ray images of the viruses; my work was recognized by the Royal Institution later that year, unfortunately; I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer, where I underwent numbers of surgeries and other treatments, but only worked temporarily, I died on April 16, 1958, at the age of 37.

After my death, Watson published "The Double Helix," in 1968, depicting me as bad-tempered and incompetent (which I think that’s not only unfair but extremely rude since he didn’t gave me any credit at all), In fact, many reviewers (including Crick and Wilkins) thought the portrayal was unfair as well.

I didn't get the notice that I deserved fo my work on DNA, but soon, other researchers and scientists noticed about the bigger, un-spotlighted effects I caused on th topic and soon, by the 70’s and up, I started to get more recognition, receiving biographies and documentaries about my amazing life (even though I was already dead).
