day was James Watson‚ who was particularly interested in finding out the structure of DNA. Soon after the conference Watson‚ who remembered just barely enough information‚ shared Rosalind’s findings with Francis Crick. With the information that he recalled they were able to create a scale 3D model of DNA; Watson hadn’t taken any notes during Rosalind’s presentation‚ so naturally some of the things he remembered were inaccurate which also led to the model being inaccurate.
