When did maurice wilkins discover DNA?
He didn't. DNA was already known before Crick, Watson, Wilkins and Franklin discovered its chemical structure in the early 50s. Crick and Watson published in "Nature" in April of 1953.
What is maurice wilkins famous for?
Wilkins and Franklin got an image of DNA in an x shape. In science this was a helix. Watson and Crick made a model out of cardboard after Watson saw the image. They realized then that DNA was a double helix.
What did James Watson and francis crick do?
Together with Maurice Wilkins and Rosalind Franklin they discovered the structure of DNA.
What piece of information did Franklin and Wilkins have that helped Watson and Crick determine the double helix structure of DNA?
Rosalind Franklin and Maurice Wilkins both gave a n x-ray of a Diffraction of a DNA Crystal
What did wilkins and franklin discover about DNA?
dna was discovered long back.franklin took x-ray images of dna,with the help of which watson and crick were able to break the code of its structure.

When did james Watson discover dna?
James Watson and Francis crick together with Maurice Wilkins announced their discovery of DNA in 1953, winning the Nobel prize in medicine.
Who conducted the X-ray diffraction studies that were key to the discovery of the structure of DNA?
It was Maurice Wilkins and Rosalind Elise Franklin.
What two forms of DNA did Rosalind Franklin discover?
The research of Rosalind Elsie Franklin led to the discovery of the double-helix structure of DNA. She did not actually discover DNA, but opened the way for others. She died in 1958, four years before the Nobel Prize in chemistry was awarded to her colleagues Maurice Wilkins, James Watson and Francis Crick for the discovery of the structure of DNA.
