DNA haiku contest for "Photograph 51" tickets!
The mysteries of why I am me and you are you are, to no small degree, coded in our DNA. The social differences that cause us so much irritation -- the calm versus the fidgeters, the extroverts versus the introverts -- almost certainly have some basis in our genetics.
Write the best haiku about DNA, and win two tickets to "Photograph 51" at Central Square Theater, opening Thursday and running through March 4. "Photograph 51" tells the story of Rosalind Franklin, a pioneering scientist who worked alongside James Watson and Francis Crick to unravel the mysteries of DNA. Tickets include parking and beverage vouchers at the theater.
Up to two entries per person, and I'll announce the winner on Friday morning. Good luck!
