“The most incredible thing that Bruno Pontecorvo taught his students is self-belief”

In December 2024, Jeanne Laberrigue-Frolow, the oldest physicist, one of the founders of the Laboratory of Nuclear Physics and High Energy (LPNHE) in Paris, passed away. In 1958, she came to Dubna where she spent 8 months working in the group of Bruno Pontecorvo at the Laboratory of Nuclear Problems. Today, on the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, let us look back at history and recall this wonderful woman.
