Our galleries are quietest on weekdays and weekend mornings. At busy times, particularly on Saturdays, you may need to queue for our temporary exhibitions.

We’re undertaking some research with website visitors to learn more about how people find access-related information provided by museums. This survey shouldn't take longer than 10 minutes to complete. Thank you for your time!

Speaking notes (holograph) and printed programme for The John Danz Lectures (Of Molecules and Men), delivered at The University of Washington, 24 February, and 1 and 3 March, 1966.

The file includes a cutting of a newspaper report (The Everett Herald, Thursday, 3 March, 1966) containing a photograph of Crick and a student, as well as another image (as a photographic print) of Crick and the same student.

Also included are three background texts:

1. M L Pettersson, "Trends of opinion on vitalism," Institute of Biology Journal, 8: 4 (1961), 100-1 (reprinted paper);
2. Eugene P Wigner, "The probability of the existence of a self-reproducing unit" (no date, photocopied pages 231-8 from an unidentified source);
3. Peter T Mora, "Urge and molecular biology," Nature, 199: 4890 (1963), 212-9 (reprinted paper). The text is inscribed by Mora to "Francis Crick - That you may see" and has several marks at the margins.
