马伊姆·拜力克,女演员,神经学家,作家

Mayim Hoya Bialik is probably best known for wearing big floppy hats in her starring role in the 1990s NBC television comedy 开花 or for playing neurobiologist Amy Farrah Fowler in the current CBS comedy 生活大爆炸, for which she has been nominated for Emmy and Screen Actors Guild awards. 但许多粉丝可能不知道她是多么适合扮演一个神经生物学家。
拜力克将于5月18日(周日)在加州大学洛杉矶分校(University of California, Los Angeles)举行的第141届毕业典礼上获得荣誉人文学博士学位。他于2000年获得加州大学洛杉矶分校(University of California, Los Angeles)的本科学位,主修神经科学,辅修犹太澳门威尼斯人注册网站研究和希伯来语。 她在加州大学洛杉矶分校获得了神经科学博士学位。
On Saturday, May 17, Bialik will join Beverly Brown, development director of BU’s 全球健康与发展中心 and wife of University President Robert A. Brown, for a roundtable discussion with students about the challenges facing women in science.
Bialik, who grew up in southern California, played the young Bette Midler character in the 1988 film 海滩 at age 12. She has been a guest star on the television shows 麦吉弗,韦伯斯特,《生活真相》,墨菲·布朗, and 抑制你的热情, and she appeared in Woody Allen’s 1994 film 不要喝水。
当她被选中扮演布洛森·罗素(开花 Russo)时,她的突破性角色出现了,这是一个在全是男性的家庭中长大的十几岁女孩。 She starred on the show for five years before enrolling at UCLA, where her 2007 PhD dissertation, 下丘脑调节与Prader-Willi综合征的适应不良、强迫、依恋和饱腹行为的关系 studied hypothalamic activity in adolescents with 二氏综合征, the most common known genetic cause of life-threatening obesity in children.
Bialik也是加州大学洛杉矶分校希勒尔分校的负责人。 她形容自己是一个对所有犹太事物都充满热情的学生,她经常在学术机构和组织发表澳门威尼斯人注册犹太问题的演讲。 她经常在以色列过暑假,志愿在一家奶牛场担任基布兹(kibbutz)工人。
Bialik是两个孩子的母亲,这一责任影响了她的另一个兴趣——写作。 Her book about attachment parenting, 超越吊索:一个真实的指导,培养自信,爱孩子的依恋育儿方式, was published in 2012. 她是一名认证的哺乳教育顾问。
In February, Bialik published the vegan cookbook 马伊姆的素食表:超过100美味和健康的食谱,从我的家人到你的. 她定期为犹太育儿网站Kveller.com撰写澳门威尼斯人注册在家上学、做母亲和在好莱坞做犹太人的文章。
In a 2012 National Public Radio interview with 全国谈话’s Ira Flatow, Bialik said that she traded the world of neuroscience to focus on acting because it allowed her to spend more time with her children. “情景喜剧的档期是非常友好的,”她告诉Flatow。 “但至少在最初的几个月和几年的护理、睡眠和所有这些事情中,我完全可以和他们呆在家里,如果我留在学术界,我就不可能做到同样的事情。”
Honorary degrees also will be awarded to Massachusetts 德瓦尔·帕特里克州长, entertainer and education advocate Bill Cosby, BU trustee, businessman, and philanthropist Rajen Kilachand (GSM’74), MIT molecular biologist 南希霍普金斯, and Michael Brown, founder of the Boston-based nonprofit City Year.
