Crick invited her to move back to the MRC (from France) and Crick even housed her at when she had ovarian cancer. Sure, he could have done more like acknowlegde her at the Nobel Ceremony - although at this point he gave a talk on the RNA code problem - not the structure of DNA. Anyhow from my understanding Crick was far from being a p***k.

Guess I'm a little jaded. Sometimes it seems as if nice scientists finish last. Mad Scientist, Glad to know that there are generous scientists out there. Guess I’m a little jaded.

Many great Scientists who have made many great discoveries have little or no egos. Infact in my opinion two of the best scientists today, Sydney Brenner and Eric Wieschaus, are also two of the most generous individuals I know.<br /> <br /> Yes there are big egos in Science, but they are not a necessary component for greatness.
