The Lichfield Science and Engineering Society are hosting the 36th Erasmus Darwin Memorial Lecture.
The discovery of DNA in 1953 was one of the most significant moments in the history of science. It has since become one of the most controversial, with many people believing that Watson and Crick stole Rosalind Franklin's data. In fact there was more collaboration between them than is widely believed and the three scientists later became friends.
You will hear from Professor Emeritus Matthew Cobb, University of Manchester.
Tickets are available from the Lichfield Garrick. LSES members benefit from a discount. https://www.lichfieldgarrick.com/events/darwin-lecture.
