What occurred
The Brooklyn Biological Laboratory would originally host summer courses at the fish hatchery in Cold Spring Harbor during the late 18th century. But in 1893 the Jones Laboratory became the first building of the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratories and was created to host the Brooklyn Biological Laboratories summer biological science courses for students from the most prominent families in the state. The Cold Spring Harbor Laboratories are now one of the most famous laboratories in the world, and is best known for being the home of DNA, because it is where James Watson discovered DNA in 1953.
