Albert Einstein Was Wrong! (But We Aren’t Surprised)

Albert Einstein once said “a person who has not made his great contribution to science before the age of 30 will never do so.”

He was wrong.

We were pleased to discover the Nobel Prize has been awarded to older adults in various disciplines of science.

• Jacques Dubochet (Chemistry, Age 75)
• Joachim Frank (Chemistry, Age 77)
• Richard Henderson (Chemistry, Age 72)
• Jeffrey Hall (Medicine, Age 72)
• Michael Rosbash (Medicine, Age 73)
• Michael Young (Medicine, Age 68)
• Rainer Weiss (Physics, Age 85)
• Barry Barish (Physics, Age 81)
• Kip Thorne (Physics, Age 77)

You’re never too old to continue your education or to follow your passion.  These men are great examples.
