Why did Jennifer Doudna study science? Herlinde Koelbl about her exhibition „Fascination Science“

Описание: Why to study science? In her current project, the internationally renowned photographer Herlinde Koelbl portrayed 60 natural scientists and Nobel Prize winners from around the world. Following Einstein’s words “The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious”, Herlinde looks for the amazement which is driving every researcher: A formula, a philosophy, a quotation. The quintessence written on hand.

In this video, we get to know the story of Jennifer Doudna, who investigates the structure and functions of ribonucleic acids (RNA) in cells and, with Emmanuelle Charpentier 2012, has developed the groundbreaking CRISPR/Cas method for the modification of genomes, for which both were recently awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry. She is the Li Ka Shing Chancellor's Chair Professor in the Department of Chemistry and the Department of Molecular and Cell Biology at the University of California, Berkeley.
