But before antibiotics, treatments for these diseases were limited or misguided.

The use of this new treatment has saved countless lives, from World War II soldiers to modern hospital patients. Explore current issues in antibiotics and the best ways to fight bacteria.

Nata in Via delle Cento Stelle a Firenze il 12 giugno 1922, Margherita hack non poteva che diventare un'astrofisica di fama mondiale. Eppure lei non ha mai creduto al destino: credeva invece nel merito, nella possibilità di realizzare i propri sogni. Lei che di sogni ne aveva tantissimi: dall'atletica, in cui sperava di conquistare una medaglia alle Olimpiadi, alla bici, con la quale fu amore a prima vista, fino alle stelle, scoperte a scuola un po' per caso e che le hanno illuminato il cammino fino ad arrivare alla guida dell'osservatorio astronomico di Trieste.

E non solo può, ma deve. Se sogni di diventare uno scienziato o una scienziata, preparati a farne di tutti i colori (e avvisa i tuoi genitori, così cominciano a mettersi il cuore in pace): il segreto infatti non è essere infallibili, bensì non arrendersi mai.
