Rita Levi-Montalcini

Above all, don’t fear difficult moments. The best comes from them.

Rita Levi-Montalcini was an Italian neurologist, embryologist, and physician who was awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 1986. She was born on April 22, 1909 in Turin, Italy and passed away on December 30, 2012 in Rome, Italy.

During the 1930s, Levi-Montalcini studied medicine at the University of Turin.

Despite this, she set up a makeshift and secretive laboratory in her own bedroom to continue her research on the growth of nerve cells. As she was unable to publish her work in Italy, she sent her research to scientific journals in Switzerland and Belgium.
