Martha Cowles Chase (1927 – 2003) was a young laboratory assistant in the early 1950s when she participated in one of the most famous experiments in 20th century biology.
By marking bacteriophages with radioactive isotopes, Hershey and Chase were able to trace protein and DNA to determine which is the molecule of heredity.
A graduate of The College of Wooster in Ohio (she had grown up in Shaker Heights, Ohio), she continued working as a laboratory assistant, first at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee and then at the University of Rochester before moving to Los Angeles in the late 1950s.

It was - in ways he never anticipated: The study of a bacterial virus turned out to be crucial in establishing the identity of DNA as the genetic material of all living things.
The experiment that Hershey and Chase devised to differentiate between these possibilities was simple and took advantage of the differences in the composition of protein and DNA.
Hershey and Chase now had two types of bacteriophages: one with a radioactive external protein coat, the other with highly radioactive DNA.
