The Dr. Matthew Meselson Collection (1948-2022) is composed of materials accrued by Dr. Matthew Meselson during his doctorate work at the California Institute of Technology from 1953-1957 under Linus Pauling , his tenure as an Assistant Professor at Caltech, his work with Franklin Stahl in 1955-1957 demonstrating self-replication of DNA, and his tenure as a Professor at Harvard University beginning in 1960. It also includes decades of materials, mainly correspondence, concerning Meselson’s self-described “hobby:” biological and chemical weapons research and political activism for control and disarmament. The collection consists of correspondence, laboratory files, course notebooks, photographs, reprints, X-ray films, and graphs. Many materials are related to X-ray crystallography, DNA replication, and Drosophila sequencing and heat shock proteins.
