Hershey was born in Owosso, Michigan to Robert Day and Alma Wilbur Hershey. He earned a B.S. in chemistry in 1930, and Ph.D. in bacteriology in 1934 from Michigan State University. Shortly after, Hershey accepted a faculty position at Washington University in St. Louis, [1] [2] serving as an instructor of bacteriology and immunology from 1934 ...
If you love Hershey's Kisses, you're not alone. If you don't know the backstory of this famed sweet, you're also not alone. With a history of more than 100 years, there's much to learn.
Experiments conducted in 1952 by Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase demonstrated how the DNA of viruses is injected into the bacterial cells, while most of the viral proteins remain outside. [1] [2] The injected DNA molecules cause the bacterial cells to produce more viral DNA and proteins. These discoveries supported that DNA, rather than ...
Scientist Martha Chase and Alfred Hershey While DNA had been known to biologists since 1869, [ 2 ] many scientists still assumed at the time that proteins carried the information for inheritance because DNA appeared to be an inert molecule, and, since it is located in the nucleus, its role was considered to be phosphorus storage.
In the 1970s, everyone could recite the Reese's Peanut Butter Cup campaign catchphrase: "You got your peanut butter in my chocolate!" Well, here's one for the new millennium: "You got your ...

1952 – Alfred Hershey & Martha Chase: Hershey–Chase experiment proves that DNA is the hereditary material . 1953 – Stanley L. Miller & Harold C. Urey: Miller–Urey experiment demonstrates that organic compounds can arise spontaneously from inorganic ones.
Hershey–Chase experiment (by Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase) uses bacteriophage to prove that DNA is the hereditary material (1952). Meselson–Stahl experiment proves that DNA replication is semiconservative (1958). Crick, Brenner et al. experiment using frameshift mutations to support the triplet nature of the genetic code (1961).
