Bernal and the Social Function of Sciencewww.vega.org.uk

Chris Freeman, the founder and first director of the Science Policy Research Unit introduces Bernal, the father of the protein crystallography techniques which enabled the double helix structure of DNA to be unravelled.

A unique artistic record of the meeting between Pablo Picasso and crystallographer J.D. Bernal was left behind on the wall in Bernal's flat. The mural was preserved, is now owned by the Wellcome Trust (UK), and was recently installed in the Wellcome Trust headquarters. Mural photo provided by Prof. Rex Palmer, Birkbeck College, London.
