Hello guys,

I am a 22 years old french physics student. I am doing a master in Theoretical Physics and want to have a PHD. I love fundamental physics and this is what I want to do for the rest of my life. Because I am an idiot, I never really studied hard or listened during lecture so I have a lot of gap in my knowledge that I have to fill !

Hello there, and nice to meet all of you! My name is Olga, I am from Russia. I have a PhD in laser physics, and I work at the local university. I study chalcogenide lasers. I am a pure experimentalist, and I love working with my hands, et cetera, and I do math only when I have to. Sometimes I work with biologists. I do nothing exciting in research, and after my defence, I hardly can call myself a scientist because we have a lack of financial support, and most of my time I spend on teaching...
