• Matthew MeselsonRelated: Crick’s account of DNA structure and information flow framed questions about replication.

• Max DelbrückRelated: Crick’s molecular biology developed in the intellectual community that Delbrück’s phage research helped establish.

• DNA structureRelated: Crick’s structural reasoning helped explain complementary pairing and the helix’s geometry.

• John KendrewRelated: Crick worked alongside Kendrew and Perutz in Cambridge as structural biology took shape.
