Liesbeth Loewenstein-Lenneberg-Maccone


My grandmother had a very interesting life. She worked in the main bio research labs of the time (the Robert Koch Institute in Berlin and the Pasteur Institute in Paris). She loved classical music and mountains (sounds familiar?). She is being celebrated from the Robert Koch research Institute in a podcast to honor her for being fired from her job there for being Jewish in Nazi Germany. You can find the podcast here:
