Why did you choose studying physics? 22 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:12,680 I always loved to read. So one day I read a book of physics and in that moment I knew that I would study physics. 23 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:24,680 And I know your husband was very interested in physics. So it was physics that joined you together? 24 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:30,680 No, when I met him, I didn't knew that he was physics too. 25 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:35,680 But we can say that in your marriage there were physics. 26 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:44,680 Well, how was the moment in which you received the Nobel Prize to Physics? 27 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:52,680 It was a very excited moment that I had been waiting a lot of time. 28 00:02:52,680 --> 00:03:02,680 so i dedicated it to my husband and to my family that are my special support okay interesting 29 00:03:03,719 --> 00:03:09,879 and why did you suddenly change the study chemistry uh one day i started 30 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:18,360 i i was studying radioactive and in that moment i discovered a new element called 31 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:26,979 radio. So to study more that element I need to have the chemistry career so I 32 00:03:26,979 --> 00:03:34,500 study chemistry. Let's talk about the future. What are, which are your hopes for science 33 00:03:34,500 --> 00:03:46,879 on 2050? My hopes are that to advance physics and chemistry in 34 00:03:46,879 --> 00:03:54,860 know the science to advance and to advance and and to and nowadays a 35 00:03:54,860 --> 00:04:04,639 chemistry is overvalued so I I hope that all teenagers study physics okay and 36 00:04:04,639 --> 00:04:16,639 what about women nowadays and women and men have the same knowledge so 37 00:04:16,639 --> 00:04:26,639 the women can discover the things that men can do and in my times it wasn't the same, it wasn't the same. 38 00:04:26,639 --> 00:04:29,639 It was a pleasure to have you in my program. 39 00:04:29,639 --> 00:04:32,639 Oh, thank you, me too. 40 00:04:32,639 --> 00:04:34,639 Bye!
