After the opening comes the serious staff! A "breakfast" which was not a real one, but was interesting enough to meet some new people, what we had in common? A Marie Curie Fellowship. Let's run and get some snacks, and starting the first one:
Presentations:
Ada E. Yonath. 2009 Nobel for Chemistry. The Ribosome solved by X-ray crystallography.
Follow the link for an impressive movie of the RIBOSOME.
Jack W. Szostak. 2009 Nobel for Medicine. Artificial Cell as a model for the origin of life.
John C. Matter. 2009 Nobel for Physics. History of the Universe. Amazing! Really!
Harald zu Hausen. 2008 Nobel for Medicine. Human cancers linked to infections.
Luc Montagnier. 2008 Nobel for Medicine. DNA between Physics and Biology.
Françoise Barré-Sinoussi. 2008 Nobel for Medicine. HIV.
Discussions:
Ada E. Yonath. Self confident, friendly and estimulating scientist. Polar Bears Rule!!!!
Robert W. Wilson (1978 Physics). Plenty of interesting tales about the beginning of cosmology as a scientific branch, ending up in the Big Bang Theory!
Day full of excitement, networking and a personal prize for me, see below:
Question, who is he and which was his prize??????
And all together we had dinner, we chatted, laughed with some jokes and we danced until they kicked us out. I have to admit that I am still pretty jet lagged, so from 12 to 1 am, taking pictures in the harbour:
And then back to the hotel to keep you all updated!!!!!!! Tomorrow more!
