“I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.”

- Albert Einstein, 1879 - 1955

Big discoveries usually starts with the smallest ideas. The answer to one question often leads to a set of new, perhaps better, questions and moves our imagination another step forward.

Your question will be evaluated by Nobel prize winners
