Nobel prize winner died - Rita Levi Montalcini

[AbigailAdams]

Obituary

I'd never heard of her until I read her obituaty yesterday, which is a shame but not unsurprising. Given the scarcity of women who win Nobel prizes especially in the sciences, I thought it was worth a flag up and thought people might be interested. She certainly seemed to have led an interesting and eventful life.

She certainly did have an amazing life, didn't she? I'm ashamed to say I hadn't heard of her either, but I asked dh and he had, although only vaguely.

Thanks for posting, it was interesting reading.
