Description:
Incorrectly determined the thickness of the cell membrane to be 3.3nm. In reality, it was actually a bilayer, meaning his interpretation of the data was incorrect, with the data being accurate. He obtained this data through measuring the capacitance of Red Blood Cell solutions. In reality, he measured the thickness of the hydrocarbon, hydrophobic core.
