		In 1932 Dorothy Crowfoot graduated from Somerville College at Oxford with a degree in chemistry (her interest in chemistry and crystals began when she was young and was encouraged by her parents and their associates to develop this interest).
		Hodgkin was able to determine that the insulin molecule is a six-part molecule; roughly triangular in shape, consisting of three pairs of molecules that enclose two zinc atoms within the core.

		Dorothy became interested in steroids while she was in Bernal's laboratory, and with Bernal and Isidor Fankuchen she studied crystals of over one hundred steroids and reported their unit-cell dimensions and the refractive indices with respect to these crystallographic axes.
		Dorothy used the cobalt atom to phase the hexacarboxylic acid derivative of vitamin Bl2, even though everyone advised her that it would not work because the scattering power of the cobalt atom was too weak with respect to the rest of the molecule.
		Dorothy took the first x-ray diffraction photographs of insulin in 1935, and from then until the crystal structure was solved 34 years later, she was confident that the molecular structure could be determined from the x-ray diffraction pattern.

	Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin - Biography
		Dorothy Crowfoot spent one season between school and university with her parents, excavating at Jerash and drawing mosaic pavements, and she enjoyed the experience so much, that she seriously considered giving up chemistry for archaeology.
		Dorothy Crowfoot was very pleased with the idea; she had heard Bernal lecture on metals in Oxford and became, as a result, for a time, unexpectedly interested in metals; the fact that in 1932 he was turning towards sterols, settled her course.
		Dorothy Hodgkin took part in the meetings in 1946 which led to the foundation of the International Union of Crystallography and she has visited for scientific purposes many countries, including China, the USA and the USSR.

		Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin (1910-1994) was the second woman to win an unshared Nobel Prize for chemistry (in 1964; Marie Curie had been the first in 1911).
		Hodgkin was not only a world-renowned theorist and mathematician but also an important pioneer in using the tools of experimental physics to elucidate the foundations of biochemical structure.
		Born in Cairo, Egypt, and schooled in England, Hodgkin had a childhood interest in science that would find its full expression in the realm of crystals and the technique of X-ray crystallography, wherein patterns of diffraction made by passing X-rays through crystals yielded dramatic new information about their molecular structures.
