Salvador Luria was a young doctor trying to find his calling in fascist Italy. A little help from his friends and the discovery of another physicist's paper put Salvador on the path to greatness. Little did he know that the path to greatness involved a long bicycle ride and dodging a Nazi invasion. Join us as we paddle furiously along with Salvador on his journey from indifferent medical student to genetics pioneer. Along the way we'll take romantic strolls through Turin, run into famous poets and finally meet out one true love, Max Delbruck. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bunsenburnerpod/support
