As a scientist, I am curious about how the world works. I am interested not only in asking questions and finding answers but also in the journey. This interest goes beyond the physical sciences; I constantly question my own identity. The Labyrinth of Solitude (El Laberinto de la Soledad) is a book that always comes to my mind when I ask, who am I? I first read it when I was in my early teens growing up in Mexico City, and it is a reminder that solitude is part of my identity.
