Professor Mildred Dresselhaus is a physicist and world expert on graphite. Her nickname is the Queen of Carbon. Her work has led the way for developments in nanotechnology, the science of tiny things, that could revolutionise our lives. Now in her 80s she is still based at the prestigious MIT University in Massachusetts, USA. In conversation with Jenni Murray she discusses her career in a male-dominated field and how she was inspired by one of the few women to win a Nobel Prize.
