Dialogue With Top Scientists
Can unknown genetic mutations in this world disrupt the circadian rhythms of flies? Why do batteries lose about one-fifth of their energy capacity before they are first charged? And how are chromosomes protected by telomeres and telomerase? And what do black holes look like ... As technology advances faster and faster, many questions always seem to come to our minds. Science requires curiosity and romantic imagination, and these need to be answered by scientists who can help you. In this issue - Ask the Top Scientists session, you will have the chance to meet Nobel Prize winners and ask them questions. These scientists will also take you through the ocean of science and technology by broadcasting live across the sky, helping you to answer the questions you want to know!

Michael W. Young
Won the 2017 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for discovering the molecular mechanism by which organisms control circadian rhythms (mainly to study Drosophila melanogaster)
Studies have shown that a protein encoded by this gene will accumulate at night and then decompose again during the day. In addition, they also discovered other protein components in the operation of this organism, thereby revealing the mechanism by which cells manage this self-sustaining operation. We now know that the biological clocks of other multicellular organisms, including humans, all have the same operating mechanism.
