- Abstract:
- In this letter Crick discussed symmetry in virus structure, and expressed hope that Klug, a crystallographer and former collaborator of Rosalind Franklin at Birkbeck College, would join the Medical Research Council's planned Laboratory of Molecular Biology in Cambridge. Klug did move there when it opened in 1978, and became Crick's long-time friend and collaborator.
