footnotes = Dr. Franklin William Stahl (born October 8, 1929) is an American molecular biologist. With Matthew Meselson, Stahl conducted the famous Meselson-Stahl experiment showing that DNA is replicated by a semiconservative mechanism, meaning that each strand of the DNA serves as a template for the "replicated" strand.

He is Emeritus Professor of Biology [ [http://www.molbio.uoregon.edu/facres/stahl.html http://www.molbio.uoregon.edu/facres/stahl.html] ] at the University of Oregon's Institute of Molecular Biology in Eugene, Oregon.
