Celebrating Women's History Month: Nobel Laureate Rita Levi-Montalcini (1909-2012)

See on Scoop.it - Good Things From Italy - Le Cose Buone d’Italia



ROME -March is Women’s History Month, and our choice to celebrate is an exceptional Italian woman who had deep ties with the United States and international influence. Neurologist Rita Levi-Montalcini shared the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine in 1986 with Stanley Cohen for discovery of the nerve growth factor (NGF), seen in the rapid growth of cancer cells.Her work has also contributed to studies of senile dementia. Levi-Montalcini was born in Turin, Italy, in 1909, one of four children. Her family life was happy, and she described them all as particularly devoted to each other. Her father was an electrical engineer cum mathematician and her mother a talented amateur artist; her twin sister Paola, with whom she remained close throughout her life, was a successful artist in Italy. It was a problem that her father, however loving, did not want his daughters’ studies to interfere with their presumed future life as wife and mother. But Levi-Montalcini persisted and eventually persuaded him that this would not be her future course. She was therefore allowed to resume her studies and graduated from high school, albeit belatedly, at age twenty. She continued with university studies in Turin and was graduated from medical school with a summa cum laude degree in surgery in 1936.

Eataly Opens in Milan

See on Scoop.it - Good Things From Italy - Le Cose Buone d’Italia



Milan. The Italian food emporium chain is scheduled to open a new store in Piazza XXV Aprile on March 18. And it plans to do it in style: three floors, 5,500 square meters devoted to the sale of food, wine, books and household items, as well as areas for workshops, meetings, presentations – all related to the world of food and wine- and “emotional areas,” such as a table and chairs placed under an olive tree where customers can sit while learning about the origins of olive oil. The central part of the building is empty, surrounded by glass walls; right in the middle, on the first floor, is a stage visible from every point in the mega store where actors, singers and musicians will perform. On each floor are sales and restaurant areas, as well as production areas for mozzarella, bread and pastries.
