Do you know the person in a Saree walking with Nobel laureates Julian Schwinger and Abdus Salam?
She is particle physicist TK Radha who had a brief but impressive career in the 1960s. After here PhD in IMSc, Chennai Oppenheimer invited her for a visit to IAS. She then did a postdoc with L. Schiff with Stanford.
Radha had written papers with the likes of Marshak and Schiff, and eventually received an Assistant Professorship at U of Alberta.
But she took a break from her career to care for her child and eventually dropped out of academia.
It was not the end of her academic story.
Almost a decade after dropping out of particle physics, she started taking computing courses at U of Alberta and ended at the top of her class. Because of her background, the physics department immediately hired her as a programmer.
For the next 16 years, she worked as a programmer, helping physicists with numerical computations. She would sometimes contribute her own ideas to their projects, which led to her being listed as co-author on several publications.
In a different world, she could have had a long and illustrious career as a particle physicist.

In the 1980s, Japan was on its way to beat the US and become a superpower
Major Japanese companies like Toyota and Sony swallowed the global markets
But then came a period of crisis known as THE LOST DECADE which broke its spirit
Here's why Japan never became a superpower:
Isn't it enough that students nowadays don't know about HP, now they won't learn Evolution.
How are we making things worse that should be getting better.

This happened in 1957 when @ShashiTharoor was not even born! These two students -- one is Kochi boy Padmanabha Gopinath -- who went for a contest in the UK, after winning, in the post award interview lambasted the interviewer. What a wonderful way to defend India.
