UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE DEPARTMENT OF APPLIED MATHEMATICS AND THEORETICAL PHYSICS FREE SCHOOL LANE, CAMBRIDGE Telephone: Cambridge 59475 1 8 February, 1 963 Dr. F. H. C. Crick, Laboratory of Molecular Biology, University Post-G-raduate Medical School, Kills Road, Cambridge. Dear Francis, Many thanks indeed for your account of what you said, which is exactly the kind of thing 1 wanted. I have written the minutes around my own record of the order and general content, and your more precise and very helpful statement. I do not think that you said much about the biochemical mechanism for protein synthesis or about messenger RNA, so I have left that bit out. I think 1 am still a little hasy about the connection between proteins and nucleic acid, but I think 1 do now understand the logical problem of curding. My general education has been advanced considerably, and, more to the point, the minutes will stand up to any amount of scrutiny now. Yours sincerely, G. K. Batchelor
