She was wrongly not given the credit she deserved in her contribution of the discovery of the shape of DNA and RNA. The credit all went to James Watson and Francis Crick. Without her X-rays, Watson and Crick would have been unable to solidify their hypothesis of a double helix shape. They were awarded the Nobel Prize along with Wilkins for “their discoveries concerning the molecular structure of nucleic acids and its significance for information transfer in living material” (O’Carroll). She was stripped of her role in this discovery and didn’t rightfully get the recognition she deserved.
