First year at UoM doing biomedical science and honestly some of these papers properly melted my brain in the best way. This is my mad for it list of the classic studies our lecturers keep banging on about, the ones that genuinely changed medicine, plus my two pence on why they're sound (or why they're a slog to get through). Reading these on the bus to Fallowfield so I don't look completely clueless in seminars, sorted.

Name	Comment	Paper	Field	Year
1Watson & Crick, Molecular Structure of Nucleic Acids	One page long and it basically invented modern genetics, mad. Everyone quotes it but half the class hasn't actually read it, myself included for about a week	Molecular Structure of Nucleic Acids (Nature, 1953)	Genetics / Molecular Biology	1953
2Fleming, On the Antibacterial Action of Cultures of a Penicillium	Bloke left his petri dish out and accidentally saved millions of lives, absolute legend. Puts my untidy desk in Fallowfield into perspective	On the Antibacterial Action of Cultures of a Penicillium	Microbiology	1929
3Marshall & Warren, Unidentified Curved Bacilli in the Stomach	Marshall literally necked the bacteria himself to prove his point, that's dedication or madness I can't decide which. Won him a Nobel though so fair enough	Unidentified Curved Bacilli in the Stomach of Patients with Gastritis and Peptic Ulceration	Gastroenterology	1984
4Doll & Hill, Smoking and Carcinoma of the Lung	The paper that basically ended the 'smoking is fine actually' era. Proper solid stats work, a bit dry to read but the impact is massive	Smoking and Carcinoma of the Lung	Epidemiology / Public Health	1950
