This interdisciplinary project was designed to give students of radiography and sonography a basic understanding of x-ray diffraction in crystallography, the dual nature of electromagnetic radiation, and the Human Genome Project. As a secondary result of the project, questions concerning the attribution and polemics of research publication arose, so this discussion is also included. This latter issue, involving Rosalind Franklin’s contributions to the study of human genetics, is particularly interesting to radiographic technologists and diagnostic sonographers because images that they produce continue to be published without any attribution or acknowledgment of their contribution.

Key Words: double helix • crystallography • genome • Rosalind Franklin • gene
