1/12 I can’t let this go. Last week “All Things Considered” aired a segment on the structure of DNA that named only Watson and Crick. When people squawked they issued a “correction” (npr.org/2023/03/01/116… ).

2/12 But I remain neither moved nor impressed. Instead I continue to feel rage and pain over the incident. Why? It all goes back to the 1968 publication of Watson’s “The Double Helix”, @npratc @ailsachang @NPRKelly @arishapiro @jmsummers @nccomfort
3/12 in which Watson painted a self-aggrandizing self-portrait and a hideous picture of the practice of science. He also assassinated Rosalind Franklin, possibly to cover the fact that he used her work without her @npratc @ailsachang @NPRKelly @arishapiro @jmsummers @nccomfort

#TheGodsThemselves o "Los Propios Dioses" de Isaac Asimov

Hace poco hablaba con @danniacc47 sobre este #libro y coincidimos en que es una joya tanto por su manejo de la ciencia ficción dura (obvio, Asimov era bioquímico), como por el desarrollo magistral de la historia

#TheDoubleHelix o "La doble hélice"🧬

Aunque sabemos que Watson es un racista insoportable, cuando leí este libro me llenó de entusiasmo por la vida universitaria

Su mejor frase: la vida de un@ investigador/a tiene que ser tan interesante académica como socialmente 🤪
