"I am a big proponent of work/life balance, and I have always prioritised my family over work. Nancy has been my full partner in this journey, and our son, Luca, has been such a wonder to watch grow. Through my uncertain times as a youth, my parents and siblings always prioritised education and unwavering love."

Nancy Hong, PhD the picture of Ardem with your son the morning of “the call” is one of my favorites !
Congratulations Ardem Petapoutian for winning the Nobel Prize in Medicine 2022. A significant journey of his life Ardem Patapoutian an Armenian -Lebanese origins, who emigrated to the United States and learned English, received his education advancing every step of the way as an honorable student, work/balance and high perseverance-dedication to his scientific knowledge and important discoveries in muscles- somatosensory neural channels of heat, touch, itch and pain detection ( Piazo1, Piazo2) and organ controls-as the urinary blader, full - empty signaling, also significant in blodder awareness. Most interesting in the overall positioning awareness of the Central Nervous System and brain functions, and RBC’s leading to new research areas. I’m also grateful to learn he is a great person with a family, and continues with his work in scientific endeavors, mentoring others.
Love this!
What a privilege and a joy it has been to know you both - professionally and personally. Kudos to you both !
This commitment to work/life balance is a refreshing perspective, proving that personal and scientific fulfillment can coexist. This is even more remarkable considering that many previous Nobel Prize winners in medicine tend to emphasize an all-consuming dedication to science.

Work life balance is hard, and requires high degrees of emotional intelligence which is, frankly, often lacking in highly accomplished scientists and engineers. Having had the pleasure of socializing with both Nancy and Ardem, I can say both of you are well balanced among some of the highest achievers!
