Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science
University Website: www.rosalindfranklin.edu
Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science (RFUMS) is a private graduate school located in North Chicago, Illinois.
It is named for Rosalind Franklin, the DNA crystallographer. Franklin was educated at a private school in London where she studied physics and chemistry from an early age, at an advanced level, especially so for a woman at that time. The Seal of the University evokes Photo 51, her X-ray diffraction pattern for B-DNA which was pivotal in the history of biology in the twentieth century. Rosalind Franklin painstakingly conceived of and captured Photo 51 of the "B" form of DNA in 1952 while at King's College in London. It is this photograph, acquired through 100 hours of X-ray exposure from a machine Dr. Franklin herself refined, that revealed the structure of DNA.
The university offers over 25 study programs in graduate health-related subjects. RFUMS provides PhD programs for medical and basic research.
It is located to the south of the Great Lakes Naval Training Center and the North Chicago VA Medical Center.
