Watson 'Professor James Dewey Watson KBE(Hon) ForMemRS (born April 6 ) is one of the four discoverers of the structure of the DNA molecule. Watson, Francis Crick , and Maurice Wilkins were awarded the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine , for their discoveries concerning the molecular structure of nucleic acids and its significance for information transfer in living material. He also received the honor of National Medal of Science in Born in Chicago, Illinois, Watson has been fascinated by birds since he was a child due to the influence of his father, James D. Watson, a businessman. At the age of 12, he starred on the Quiz Kids , a popular radio show that challenged precocious youngsters to answer difficult questions. Thanks to the liberal policy of Robert Hutchins , he enrolled at the age of 15 at the University of Chicago . After reading Erwin Schrödinger 's book What Is Life?

So far, 28 Cavendish researchers have won Nobel Prize s. The Cavendish Laboratory has had an important influence on biology , mainly through the application of X-ray crystallography to the study of structures of biological molecules.
