Cavendish Laboratory worked with Crick at Cambridge in the Cavendish Laboratory and the new Laboratory of Molecular Biology. According to the late Dr. Beryl Oughton, later Rimmer, they all travelled together in two cars once Dorothy Hodgkin announced to them that they were off to Cambridge to see the model of the structure of DNA. Orgel also later worked with Crick at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies. The Cavendish Professors were the heads of the department until the tenure of Sir Brian Pippard, during which period the roles separated. † "Jacksonian Professors of Natural Philosophy" Areas in which the Laboratory has
Materials Simulation Laboratory studied by molecular dynamics which allows us to investigate the phenomena at sub-nanometer length and sub-picosecond time scales. These time and length scales can not be experimentally studied at the same level of detail as done by theory/modeling. Research projects are currently conducted within the following key areas: Materials Simulation Laboratory The Materials Simulation Laboratory of the Department of Physics, University of South Florida, (MSL) was established in 2002 by Prof. Ivan Oleynik of that University. The MSL is dedicated to solving challenging problems in condensed matter and materials physics using computers as research tools. Research efforts at MSL focus
