  Watson, Patrick
Watson was the co-producer for the first season of Seven Days, and became the on-air co-host and interviewer in the second year in a move that the CBC management thought would curb some of the more controversial ideas and methods of the series.
Watson and the extraordinary team of producers and writers assembled for the series (many became influential documentarists and producers through the 1960s and 1970s) became even more innovative and "in-your-face" with their journalism, daring the CBC management to take action.
Watson's years as chair of the CBC board of directors were difficult ones for him and the corporation.

 Watson
Watson knew, as all psychologists do, that a theoretical perspective will be no more influential than the productivity of its methods, and in a section of some fifty pages, he offered students a methodological handbook for the new behaviorism.
Watson emphasized external and peripheral factors at the expense of internal and central ones; he sought broad generalizations across individuals and species; his approach was holistic and dynamic, not structural-mechanical; and, above all, his goals were experimental control and engineering, quite independent of evolutionary concerns."

 James Dewey Watson (1928 - )
James Watson, one of the most influential researchers in the short history of the field of genetics, was born on April 6, 1928, in Chicago.
Crick and Watson made the intuitive leap: in 1953, they proposed that the structure of DNA was a winding helix in which pairs of bases (adenine paired with thymine and guanine paired with cytosine) held the two strands together.
The Watson-Crick model of the DNA double helix provided enormous impetus for research in the emerging fields of molecular genetics and biochemistry, and Crick, Watson, and Wilkins were awarded the Nobel Prize in 1962.

Watson, Francis Crick, and Maurice Wilkins were awarded the 1962 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine, for their discoveries concerning the molecular structure of nucleic acids and its significance for information transfer in living material, with the help of the research of Rosalind Franklin.
Watson then went to Europe for postdoctoral research, first heading to the laboratory of biochemist Herman Kalckar in Copenhagen who was interested in nucleic acids and had developed an interest in phage as an experimental system.
Watson's key contribution was in discovering the nucleotide base pairs that are the key to the structure and function of DNA.

This theme of Watson's book — the hot pursuit of glory, the race against the chemist Linus Pauling for the Nobel Prize that DNA would surely bring--got bad reviews from the (relatively) genteel Crick.
