This Egyptian student turned down a job at the IAEA for a career and studies in Russia! (VIDEO)
"It's cold in Russia and there are bears!" - This is what Sohaila's parents and friends told her when she decided to go to study in Russia. But, the young woman was determined. And now, she's become an ambassador for Russian nuclear education.
Sohaila Aboudeif from Egypt is a postgraduate student at the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology. She works at the large medical corporation 'KhimRar', automating production processes, where she's learned to do many things with her own two hands.
After the scientist received the 'Maria Skłodowska-Curie Award' in Vienna, she was invited to work at the IAEA, but she refused, as she likes it in Moscow. She reveals what it's like for a female physicist to live in Russia!
