The Code Inside You

This colourful comic explains how DNA works and how scientists decoded the human genome. It shows that DNA lives inside every cell and is written using just four letters i.e. A, T, C, and G. Although humans look different, we share 99.9% of the same DNA.

The comic also highlights the Human Genome Project, where scientists from around the world worked together to read all 3.2 billion DNA letters in the human body. Completed with new technology in 2022, this discovery helps doctors improve treatments, understand diseases, and learn more about human history.

This comic helps students see how their bodies run on a tiny code and how science is still learning to read it.

The Mystery in the Photo: Rosalind Franklin’s Hidden Legacy

DNA_MYSTERY

In 1952 at King’s College London, Rosalind Franklin captured one of the most important images in scientific history the famous Photo 51. This X-ray diffraction photo revealed the striking “X” pattern, unlocking the secret structure of DNA, the blueprint of life itself. While her ground-breaking contribution laid the foundation for modern genetics and molecular biology, her name was initially left out of the discovery credits. Watson and Crick built their DNA model with insights from her work, but Franklin’s recognition came much later. Today, she is celebrated as a pioneer whose vision and precision inspired generations of scientists. This comic story highlights not just her discovery but also her struggle for acknowledgment in a male-dominated scientific world. Rosalind Franklin didn’t just take a photo but she reshaped humanity’s understanding of life.
