"Little Einstein," an 11-year-old who just graduated university, now seeks to achieve immortality
Laurent Simons completed a quantum physics bachelor’s degree in 18 months
In an effort to make us feel absolutely terrible about the very minor accomplishments we managed in our youths, yet another genius child has surfaced today. And this one is bent on scientifically defeating death itself after graduating from university at age 11.
In an article from Australian outlet The Age we learn that Laurent “Little Einstein” Simons has now “become the youngest graduate in quantum physics” after completing “a bachelor’s degree with distinction from the University Of Antwerp in just 18 months.” The boy wonder, who lives in Belgium, has opted not to allow himself any time off for an extended juice break. He is now getting ready to study in the United Kingdom, Israel, and the United States as he works toward a doctorate that will take advantage of his “interest in biotechnology.”
