Rosalind Elsie Franklin (1920-1958) was a very important character who collaborate with science, thanks to her the double helix structure of DNA could be clarified and this was an important fact to understand the life. She graduate of physics, mathematics, and chemist at Cambridge University. In spite of obtaining this colossal information for the science's world, she didn't gain the Nobel Prize, because she died four years before her work was recognized...Instead, they awarded the prize to two scientists, Watson and Crick, and today these names are easily recognized in science books.
Rosalind Franklin is one of the women forgotten by science, and I consider it very unfair. I like and admired this woman because she achieved many important things despite being inserted in a world of men when the woman was seen like a useless person. Rosalind's history can make us think and realize that woman CAN do things like men.

Today, I'm proud of all the woman that have gone ahead despite discrimination. Neither man and woman are superior and this thought must be maintained.
