That’s kind of amazing but I can’t help but wonder if she ever had a childhood.



Honestly, it’s more disruptive to one’s life to try to have a baby while as a postdoc or assistant professor than to start a PhD at 16. The last president of MIT had a baby when she was 42, something which is not unusual for academics. It’s not ideal.
