Correspondence regarding a lecture ("The Nature of the Genetic Code") delivered at The Queen's University of Belfast on 17 January, 1962.
A letter (18 October, 1961) from Crick to Dr Ian Leslie, recently met at a conference in Moscow, announces: "We have been able to show, by genetic methods, that the coding ratio is 3!" The correspondence suggests that the subject of Crick's lecture was the genetic experiments described in Crick, et al (1961), "General nature of the genetic code for proteins," shortly to be published in the Nature issue for 30 December, 1961.
The file also contains two newspaper cuttings (7 April, 1962) of brief reviews of an exhibition of sculpture (Barbara Hepworth) and molecular models (haemoglobin and DNA) at the Sir William Whitla Hall, Queen's University, Belfast. An illustrated catalogue (b/w, A4 fold-over) for the exhibition is also included.
