contrast the louth story with that of barbara bryant - montalcini , an italian nobel finalist with turned 100 one wednesday . she still attends for work every morning at the asian human studies institute in rome , that she founded . she was appointed a senator for life in 2001 , and in 2006 , elderly 97 , she observed the opening assembly of the newly formed senate . she is part in meetings in the upper house , and in 2004 debated the education of adaptation in public schools . there is no record of her having sought a month off because of campaign commitments . supposedly she also manages to get perfectly through the lily of sligo with lifting her head from her petri dish .
Rita Levi-Montalcini is a Nobel prize winner.
