Oct. 12 is World Arthritis Day.
World Arthritis Day was established in 1996 by Arthritis and Rheumatism International (ARI) and is celebrated each year on 12 October.
Now, people with rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases (RMDs) from around the world can join together to make their voices
heard on this day. World Arthritis Day is an ideal focus for organisations to raise awareness of issues affecting people with
RMDs and for individuals to support campaigns.

On October 18, 1962, the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded jointly to Francis Crick,
James Watson and Maurice Wilkins "for their discoveries concerning the molecular structure of nucleic
acids and its significance for information transfer in living material."
Rosalind Franklin, whose work contributed to the discovery, died before this date and the rules
do not allow a Nobel Prize to be awarded posthumously. (Photos: © The Nobel Foundation)
