 He was also an Honorary Fellow of Churchill College, Cambridge and of University College, London.Crick began a PhD research project on measuring the viscosity of water at high temperatures (which he later described as "the dullest problem imaginable") in the laboratory of physicist Edward Neville da Costa Andrade at University College London, but with the outbreak of World War II (in particular, an incident during the Battle of Britain when a bomb fell through the roof of the laboratory and destroyed his experimental apparatus), Crick was deflected from a possible career in physics.During his second year as a PhD student, however, he was awarded the Carey Foster Research Prize, a great honour.
