励志。请对生物还有幻想的同仁,看看她的原话(第二段,引自纽约时报)。
In the late 1960s, after working at Great Ormond Street Hospital in London,
Ms. McCullough accepted a position as a neurophysiological research
assistant at the Yale School of Medicine. Discovering that she was being
paid less than her male colleagues there, she cast about for another source
of income.
“I loved being a neurophysiologist, but I didn’t want to be a 70-year old
spinster in a cold-water walk-up flat with one 60-watt light bulb, which is
what I could see as my future,” she told The California Literary Review in
2007. |
