Florentina Mosora Explained
Florentina Ioana Mosora or Florentina Stan-Mosora (7 January 1940 in Cluj, Romania - 2 February 1996 in Liège, Belgium) was a Romanian and Belgian biophysicist. In her earlier years, before 1964, she was a film actress in the Romanian film industry.
Biography
Mosora initially had a career in acting and was noted for her role in Dragoste la zero grade ("Love at Zero Degrees", 1964).[2] She also starred in Sub cupola albastră ("Under the Blue Arch", 1962),[3] Post-restant ("Poste Restante", 1961), and Băieţii noştri ("Our Boys", 1959).[3] She was a graduate of the University of Bucharest's Faculty of Physics.[4] Later she moved to Belgium, where she worked on the use of stable isotopes in medicine.[1] [5] She was awarded the 1979-1981 Prix Agathon de Potter[6] for outstanding research work in physics by the Agathon de Potter Foundation and the Belgian Royal Academy.[7] In 1989 she was one of three scientists co-organizing a NATO workshop on Biomechanical Transport Processes.[8] She died aged 56 in Liège.[1] [9]
