Through their lives and work, failures and successes get to know the individuals who have been awarded the Nobel Prize. The host for this podcast is Adam Smith, who has the happy task of interviewing our Nobel Prize laureates.Sit in on our conversations as we delve into how these personalities found their fields of interest — often by coincidence — how they view collaboration, curiosity and failure, and what keeps them going. The laureates share what they have learned from their career and what they like to do outside of their work from music to fly-fishing. We let the discussions flow freely, resulting in richly varied stories on topics ranging from poverty prevention to the science of black holes and the importance of being a role model.Our latest season running in Spring/Summer 2024, features the new crop of 2023 laureates, and is produced in cooperation with Fundación Ramón Areces.

A podcast rating and reviewing all of the Nobel laureates from 1901 until we run out of people.

Marie Curie, born in Warsaw in 1867, was a Polish-French physicist and chemist famous for her work on radioactivity. She was a pioneer in the field of radioactivity and the first person honored with two Nobel Prizes - in physics (1903) and chemistry (1911). The risks of working with strongly radioactive materials were not known at that time, and she eventually died in 1934 from an illness likely caused by radiation poisoning.Radioactive Substances is the thesis of Marie Curie, presented to the Faculté de Sciences de Paris in 1903, and subsequently published in 'Chemical News' vol 88, 1903. Marie Curie gives a detailed description of her research on radioactive substances carried out at the Sorbonne. She details how she obtained the two new elements radium and polonium from pitchblende, explains her numerous experiments and presents measurements of all kinds. (Summary by Availle) more

En colaboración con la Coordinación de Universidad Abierta y Educación a Distancia de la UNAM (CUAED), Descarga Cultura.UNAM estrena la serie Vida y obra de…, en la que se podrá conocer el andar de diversos actores de la historia que, a pesar de las adversidades de su contexto, tuvieron la tenacidad para sobresalir y, desde su trinchera, aportar a la cultura y desarrollo humanos. Inicia esta serie con la vida de un personaje que, como lo asegura la escritora española Rosa Montero, 'fue pionera absoluta en todo': la primera mujer en doctorarse en Ciencias, en Francia, la primera en dar cátedra en La Sorbona y la primera persona en obtener dos premios Nobel en distintas especialidades —Física y Química—. Se trata de la científica Marie Curie, quien descubrió los elementos químicos Polonio y Radio y estudio el origen y las aplicaciones del fenómeno que ella misma llamó radioactividad. Todo esto suena impresionante, pero lo es aún más si se conoce en qué circunstancias logró todo esto, quiénes fueron sus aliados y quiénes sus detractores, cuáles fueron sus principales motivaciones, qué la turbó durante su vida y cómo logró hacer mancuerna, no sólo profesional sino de vida, con su compañero Pierre Curie.

Growth of the Soil (Markens Grøde) is the novel by Norwegian writer Knut Hamsun which won him the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1920. The essential elements of this novel are expressed in the words of the English translator W.W. Worster in his footnote in December 1920: 'It is the life story of a man in the wilds, the genesis and gradual development of a homestead, the unit of humanity, in the unfilled, uncleared tracts that still remain in the Norwegian Highlands. It is an epic of earth; the history of a microcosm. Its dominant note is one of patient strength and simplicity; the mainstay of its working is the tacit, stern, yet loving alliance between Nature and the Man who faces her himself, trusting to himself and her for the physical means of life, and the spiritual contentment with life which she must grant if he be worthy. . .The story is epic in its magnitude, in its calm, steady progress and unhurrying rhythm, in its vast and intimate humanity. The author looks upon his characters with a great, all-tolerant sympathy, aloof yet kindly, as a god.' (Introduction by Wikipedia) more

Marie Curie Biografía IntroduccionMarilyn Bailey Ogilvie

Jane Addams was the first American woman to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. In a long, complex career, she was a pioneer settlement worker and founder of Hull-House in Chicago, public philosopher (the first American woman in that role), author, and leader in woman suffrage and world peace. She was the most prominent woman of the Progressive Era and helped turn the nation to issues of concern to mothers, such as the needs of children, public health and world peace. She emphasized that women have a special responsibility to clean up their communities and make them better places to live, arguing they needed the vote to be effective. Addams became a role model for middle-class women who volunteered to uplift their communities. This recording of her memoir Twenty Years at Hull-House commemorates the 100th anniversary of its publication, the 150th anniversary of Addams' birth, and was released on December 10th, the anniversary of Addams receiving her Nobel Prize.
