i did it. i drew edgy Mikey. my sacred duty as a MCR listener is complete <3

[see the OG edit and post link below!]

behold, the OG post and the edit link: X

gives immaculate chaotic vibes, he had to be drawn

Raphaella is so Right actually. If I had immortality and a near-inability to find human life meaningful I would also perform so many fucked up experiments. There are several experiments I've already thought of that I'd perform if it weren't for time, ethics, and laws of the universe.

Plus she's arguably more ethical than many real-life scientists.

Real-life ethical violations:

"We're experimenting on this specific group of people because we see them as lesser"

"We're lying for profit"

"We know we're harming these people but they deserve to be harmed and we're using the information to help our preferred group of people"

Not to mention shitty controls, poor sample selection, general falsification of results by p-hacking or cherry picking data

Raphaella:

Will experiment on anyone

Does it for curiosity, a respectable purpose

Would actually have decent fucking controls and truly randomize her selection of subjects and would do proper statistical analysis and use a solid sample size before coming to conclusions

Wouldn't steal someone's work, win a Nobel prize off of it, and then call the person who won him a Nobel prize a moron in his memoir

"It's beautiful," Crick breathes, erect and standing while admiring the erect and standing model of double-helix DNA, all bases correctly paired as the metal pieces spin a frozen tower heavenward, reaching. Reaching like humanity grasping for God, but now they've finally reached divinity. Once a project of babel, now solved. Finally, it's complete. "Crick," says Watson in that quick way of his, chewing at nothing. "Your crick, is, well, cricked. Your wank is cranked." "Watson, you. God's sake for the last time stop looking at my penis"

Okay, so I was watching Miles From Tomorrowland - one of my comfort shows, and admirals Watson and Crick remind me so much of Kol and Elijah. (Well like the Kol and Elijah dynamic you read more in fan fiction but whatever).

Kol being Crick (on the left) and Elijah being Watson (on the right). 

If you watched any clips of their dynamic you can see how they remind me of Kol and Elijah

Anyways, mini rant over

[thepastisalreadywritten]

A bronze statue of a laboratory mouse knitting a double helix of DNA in order to honor all the mice that were sacrificed for genetic research to develop new drugs to fight diseases.

It was designed by Andrew Kharkevich and is located in Siberia, Russia.

The monument was completed on 1 July 2013, coinciding with the 120th anniversary of the founding of the city.

The monument commemorates the sacrifice of the mice in genetic research used to understand biological and physiological mechanisms for developing new drugs and curing diseases.

Sculptor Alexei Agrikolyansky, who created the statue, confessed that it was challenging to capture this moment, as the mouse was obviously not human.

Nevertheless, he had to produce a character with believable emotions while maintaining anatomical proportions, avoiding it looking like a cartoon character or a real mouse.

The DNA spiral emerging from the knitting needles winds to the left, symbolizing the still poorly understood Z-DNA - representing the scientific research that is yet to be done.

In contrast, the more common B-DNA winds to the right.

The very first photograph of DNA was captured by a woman named Rosalind Franklin (25 July 1920 – 16 April 1958) using X-ray technology, allowing James Dewey Watson (born April 6, 1928) and Francis Harry Compton Crick OM FRS (8 June 1916 – 28 July 2004) to accurately characterize the double helix.

While they went on to win the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1962, Franklin was not credited.

Sadly, she had passed away in 1958 from ovarian cancer, most likely caused by the high radiation exposure she endured while working with X-rays to capture the image of the double helix.

Question: What did James Watson and Francis Crick (and Maurice Wilkins) discover?

Answer: Rosalind Franklin's notes.

Just wanna test something thats on my mind

Don't use Google, I just wanna see what people think/were taught in school or from time on the Internet

[whats-in-a-sentence]

In 1953, using X-ray diffraction photograph of DNA fibres (figure 7.50) obtained by Rosalind Franklin and New Zealand-born Maurice Wilkins, James Watson and Francis Crick came to the conclusion that the DNA structure consists of the now-famous double helix (see figure 7.51).

found out that Rosalind Franklin died from cancer and i’m never going to be the same… her life’s work was DNA and then her own DNA betrayed her…

Are you a scientist by any chance? I'm reading Remain Nameless for the first time (it's breathtaking btw) and I just noticed the elves are called Watson and Crick. LOVE the reference and Hi from an epigeneticist! 🥰

Hello epigeneticist reader!

I am not a scientist just someone who appreciates science and a nerdy reference (you might have also noticed the name of Draco’s home? 😁). Thank you for reading, i love when ppl notice the elves ❤️
