他的科学,从不冰冷(走近科学大咖⑤)
摄影机已架好。专访结束,我们想请德国科学院院士、汉诺威大学讲席教授尤尔根·卡罗录一段简短的 开场白,用在短视频里。 "正式的,还是非正式的?"他问。 "非正式一点,轻松就好。"我们答。 卡罗神情有些严肃,想了几秒,抬头看向镜头,刚说出两个单词,又忽然摆手:"等一等。" 现场有些安静。我们以为这位教授有些疲倦了。 几秒后,他忽然转身,从包里翻出一本护照。"也许我可以从这里开始。"他翻开来,向镜头展示上面收 集的15个入境中国的印章,"我现在有了永久签证,可以更方便地来中国了,我喜欢中国。"他说。 一瞬间,现场笑开了花。这位严谨的科学家,原来是在设计小短片的桥段…… 这个小插曲,让人看到卡罗的另一面:他身上既有科学家的理性与克制,也有对世界的热情与幽默。 他的科学,从不冰冷。 1977年,他以优异成绩获得自然科学博士学位。在东德科学院解散后,科研机构骤然转向市场化。卡罗 从所长变成无依无靠的"自由科学家"。他带着十几名研究员,自筹经费,为企业定制催化剂维系实验 室。那是他人生中最艰难的两年,也是他重新理解科学意义的起点。 2023年10月,在清华大学举行的"巅峰对话"活动中,卡罗 (左)与2018年沃尔夫化学奖得 ...
