Maurice Wilkins - won the noble along with Watson and Crick
Renowned x-ray crystallographer Rosalind Franklin. Without her knowledge or permission, Franklin's colleague Maurice Wilkins showed Photo 51 to Watson and Crick shortly before they introduced the world to DNA's double-helix structure in 1953. This photo led directly to Watson and Crick's discovery, and today Franklin is often credited as a co-discoverer of DNA's structure.

Discoverers of the structure of DNA James Watson (b 1928) & Francis Crick (b 1916) with their model of part of a DNA molecule in 1953. Crick & Watson met at the Cavendish Laboratory in 1951. Their work integrated Chargaff's ratios of the bases in DNA & access to X-ray crystallography of Maurice Wilkins & Rosalind Franklin (King's College London). This led to the deduction that DNA exists as a double helix. Crick, Watson & Wilkins shared the 1962 Nobel Prize for Physiology.

Raymond Gosling is relatively well known in the DNA story because of his collaboration with Rosalind Franklin on the X-ray crystallography of DNA. However, Gosling's role in the DNA story pre-dated Franklin's arrival at the lab and it is this work in collaboration with Maurice Wilkins which was also of great importance to the discovery of the double helix.
