    It covered the discovery of DNA in 1953. [1] Maurice Wilkins and his involvement with the Manhattan Project, speaking in his university office in London; Linus Pauling's son Peter, of Caltech, now lived in Wales; Linus Pauling approached the discovery of the structure of DNA in a much more methodical rigid manner, perhaps in a plodding way, and Pauling was never one to take the same un-thought ...

    The Linus Pauling Institute is a research institute located at the Oregon State University with a focus on health maintenance. The mission statement of the institute is to determine the functional roles of micronutrients and phytochemicals in promoting optimal health and to treat or prevent human disease, and to determine the role of oxidative stress and inflammation in health and disease.

    Robert Brainard Corey (August 19, 1897 – April 23, 1971) was an American biochemist, mostly known for his role in discovery of the α-helix and the β-sheet with Linus Pauling. Also working with Pauling was Herman Branson. Their discoveries were remarkably correct, with even the bond lengths being accurate until about 40 years later.

    Far from making his jaw drop and his pulse race, the revelation that DNA was a simple a twisting helix would therefore have been a disappointment but it is intriguing to speculate on how differently history might have unfolded had Astbury shown Beighton's image to his friend and colleague the eminent US chemist and Nobel Laureate, Linus Pauling ...
