Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. NATIONAL BESTSELLER A powerful memoir from Katalin Kariko, winner of the 2023 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, whose decades-long research led to the COVID-19 vaccinesKatalin Karikos story is an inspiration.Bill GatesRiveting . . . a true story of a brilliant biochemist who never gave up or gave in.Bonnie Garmus, author of Lessons in ChemistryA KIRKUS REVIEWS BEST BOOK OF THE YEARKatalin Kariko has had an unlikely journey. The daughter of a butcher in postwar communist Hungary, Kariko grew up in an adobe home that lacked running water, and her family grew their own vegetables. She saw the wonders of nature all around her and was determined to become a scientist. That determination eventually brought her to the United States, where she arrived as a postdoctoral fellow in 1985 with $1,200 sewn into her toddlers teddy bear and a dream to remake medicine. Kariko worked in obscurity, battled cockroaches in a windowless lab, and faced outright derision and even deportation threats from her bosses and colleagues. She balked as prestigious research institutions increasingly conflated science and money. Despite setbacks, she never wavered in her belief that an ephemeral and underappreciated molecule called messenger RNA could change the world. Kariko believed that someday mRNA would transform ordinary cells into tiny factories capable of producing their own medicines on demand. She sacrificed nearly everything for this dream, but the obstacles she faced only motivated her, and eventually she succeeded.Karikos three-decade-long investigation into mRNA would lead to a staggering achievement: vaccines that protected millions of people from the most dire consequences of COVID-19. These vaccines are just the beginning of mRNAs potential. Today, the medical community eagerly awaits more mRNA vaccinesfor the flu, HIV, and other emerging infectious diseases.Breaking Through isnt just the story of an extraordinary woman. Its an indictment of closed-minded thinking and a testament to one womans commitment to laboring intensely in obscurityknowing she might never be recognized in a culture that is driven by prestige, power, and privilegebecause she believed her work would save lives.

Condición: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Las apasionantes memorias de Katalin Karikó, ganadora del Nobel de Medicina por la infatigable investigación que hizo posible las vacunas ARNm contra la COVID-19. «La historia de Katalin Karikó es inspiradora. Cualquiera que dude que la ciencia, la innovación y la perseverancia pueden cambiar el mundo debería leer este libro. » Bill Gates Hija de un carnicero en la Hungría comunista de posguerra, Katalin Karikó creció en una casa de adobe sin agua corriente, donde su familia cultivaba sus propias verduras. Fascinada ante las maravillas de la naturaleza, aquella niña se propuso convertirse en científica. Esa determinación finalmente la llevó a Estados Unidos, adonde llegó en 1985 con 1200 dólares escondidos en el peluche de su hija y el sueño de transformar la medicina. Karikó trabajó en la sombra, luchó contra cucarachas en un laboratorio sin ventanas y se enfrentó a burlas e incluso amenazas de deportación de sus jefes y colegas. Nunca vaciló en su creencia de que una molécula efímera y subestimada llamada ARN mensajero podría cambiar el mundo. Tres décadas después, la investigación de Karikó sobre el ARNm haría posibles las vacunas que protegieron a millones de personas de las consecuencias más graves de la COVID-19. Rompiendo barreras es la historia de una mujer extraordinaria que trabajó sin descanso para ser reconocida en un ambiente movido por el prestigio, el dinero y el poder, convencida de que su trabajo salvaría vidas. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
