  • Title: On Francis Crick, the genetic code, and a clever kid.
    Author: Goldstein B.
    Journal: Curr Biol; 2018 Apr 02; 28(7):R305. PubMed ID: 29614285.
    Abstract:
    A few years ago, Francis Crick's son told me a story that I can't get out of my mind. I had contacted Michael Crick by email while digging through the background of the researchers who had cracked the genetic code in the 1960s. Francis had died in 2004, and I was contacting some of the people who knew him when he was struggling to decipher the code. Francis didn't appear to struggle often - he is known mostly for his successes - and, as it turns out, this one well-known struggle may have had a clue sitting just barely out of sight.
