Chances are you've seen an illustration of DNA's double-helix structure and even pictures of the chromosomes that make up the human genome. But where and how does the famous double helix fit into ...

The scientist who discovered hybridization and the "other" double helix describes what it meant to biology. By Alexander Rich Fifty-two years ago I was venturing to the basement of Cal Tech chemistry ...

Biology lectures teach students that when a cell’s replication machinery comes together, DNA polymerase takes off down the double-helix like a car on a highway ...
