Rosalind Elsie Franklin (25 July 1920 - 16 April 1958) was a British biophysicist and X-ray crystallographer who made critical contributions to the understanding of the fine molecular structures of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), RNA, viruses, coal, and graphite. Franklin is best known for her work on the X-ray diffraction images of DNA which led to the discovery of the DNA double helix.
