Of course, Jim Watson and Francis Crick were hardly exaggerating. Their achievements almost single-handedly launched the new science of DNA. Interviews with renowned scientists and stunningly realized animations and reconstructions of key experiments offer an unprecedented glimpse of the molecular basis of life. Fifty years after the discovery of the double helix, this film re-assesses the classic story of how Jim Watson and Francis Crick worked out the double helix structure of DNA. This is the definitive documentary account of how the human race found the secret of life. It reveals how a gawky American biologist, with a strong interest in birds came to team up with a cocky, but brilliant physicist in Cambridge, England. Against all the odds, they decided to tackle the problem of the century: was DNA the key to life?
An animated explanation of recent research building artificial neural networks out of interacting DNA molecules. Part I introduces the motivation, the mathematical model of a neuron, and the design of a DNA-based neural network that is capable of recalling a memory when presented with partial information. Part II introduces how to make such a DNA-based neural network in the laboratory, how it remembers four scientists and identifies one of them given an incomplete answer to a set of yes-or-no questions, and how this work could be related to the evolutionary history of intelligence.

?????????
Really interesting, thank you for this video
why wont comic sans just go away?
@savagecabage The Internet got together and decided we would continue using it to annoy you
I won’t listen to someone using ComicSans for a scientific presentation…
Maurice Wilkins was a douche bag. Idiot died a fool because he never cooperated and decided that Roselind Franklin’s work wasn’t important.
Discovery’s Noah s Ark the truth story is vote bot attacked by creationists please help! watch?v=gyq48bTLQ5s&feature=related
There is so much to think and feel about this amazing story.about the personalities behind science. Easily one of the best videos I’ve seen on Youtube. Thanks for uploading.
I know that this looks scientific to some people to prove the Evolution theory,
but that is incorrect and illogic scientifically !
How can things be things by it self ? how could the DNA has his code by it self ?
Does anyone know what is the probability to have a construction like the DNA ?
Is that by coincidence ?
This is a tricky Serie ! And I am mathematician and the laws of Math contradicts these things in the videos !
@KilluaXIII Freewill …
The enemy of church…one more thing to love about this…
@TheDjomed yes,but don’t forget that maths are made by human…On the other hand ,dna made humans…so don’t try to base mathematical laws on things that we don’t yet fully understand…show some respect to the nature
Best regards,
Chris
@TheDjomed
I know it is slightly difficult to grasp the principles of how DNA has coded itself through evolution, but that has nothing to do with odd probability. You should know better, being a mathematician, but since you don´t, watch “The blind watchmaker”, by R. Dawkins or “The secret life of chaos”, By the BBC, with Jim Al Khalil. Only then, after you really know what the factors in play are, could you possibly think of appliyng maths to come up with probabilities.
@actsnfacts Oh yeah, if you look at it with the probability eye, how come a complex combinations like that hapens by it self without a greater power? In my point of view being crazy is closer than beleiving in such theory hhh, because this drops down all the science. I know and everyone knows that all the planet is connected by the law of energy that is why there is only one concept of truth and facts which we call LOGIC, not an inforeced theory will drop? down that all !
wow! this was amazing [period]
@TheDjomed
You’re definitely nothing english related.
@ChrisRedyouth1990
Amen to that.
@loveMCRlove
I would bathe in Jeff Goldbloom’s voice.
@KilluaXIII
They’re probably creationists…
32:39 hahaahahahahahahaha
I spent days trying to find those videos again! Thanks WhyEvolutionstrue for posting them!!!!
Very cool documentary! I watched it for extra credit for my biology class, but it is very intriguing! It must have been an honor just to be in the presence of Watson or Wilkins and hear them speak! Very cool stuff.
Awesome channel.
