Francis Crick was born in England in 1916. He earned a Bachelor of Science degree in physics from University College, London. Crick received a PhD and was an Honorary Fellow of Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge. He did postdoctoral work at the Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn.
Crick met James Watson at Cambridge University鈥檚 Medical Research Council Unit at the Cavendish Laboratories in 1949. Watson and Crick together developed a model for a helical structure of DNA, which they published in 1953. For this and subsequent work they were jointly awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1962.
From 1977 until his death, Crick held the position of distinguished professor at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in San Diego, California, where he conducted research on the neurological basis of consciousness.
Crick delivered a series of three Beatty Lectures in May 1985 titled "How Do We See Things?", "The Search-Light Hypothesis" and "The Problem of Awareness".
