-Is it difficult for women to be successful in science ?
- To say that it is very easy , it will not be true . If you love Math , If you are hard worker then there is no difficult for women to be successful in science . Most people believe that math is an inherently difficult subject – accessible only to people who are born with a “ gift ” for numbers or who display mathematical ability at an early age . I do not agree absolutely . I believe that everyone ( or almost everyone ) can learn math and math can be accessible to every brain .
-What advice can you give for young people ?
-I recommend three simple and basic set of values for youth : love of the life , education , freedom . If you place a high value on each of these and consider them in your decisions , it will affect the choices you make . I want to tell for young people : never be afraid to take the hard path and never try to take the easy path to success . Because there is no hard road to success ! There is only faith in yourself , love for your work and work hard !
