Monarch of Crystallography: Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin and the Structure of Large Molecules. Two scientists.Two crystallographers.Both successful, but one died young after her most significant discovery was snatched from her, while the other lived to a ripe old age after a string of ground-breaking discoveries and a Nobel Prize. The former, Rosalind Franklin, is a household name. But the latter, in spite of the foundational importance of her work, has always remained on the fringe of our cultural perception: Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin (1910-1994). It is one of the truly frustrating thing https://tinyurl.com/yketyrn5
