Lista de publicaciones de Hannah (Mirta) Sivak

By Dr. Hannah Sivak | February 10, 2020

He aquí un listado de mis publicaciones científicas. Verás que en su mayoría figuran como escritos por Mirta, no por Hannah. Es que cuando nací, en Argentina había que elegir entre una lista muy corta de nombres permitidos (la lista es mucho más larga ahora), por lo que mis padres me inscribieron como Mirta Noemi. Pero mi familia siempre me llamó Hannah (Chana), el nombre de mi abuela. Cuando vine a los Estados Unidos, decidí cambiar mi nombre de pila, Mirta, por Hannah; tal vez fue una idea tonta (mi hija piensa que lo fue), pero ya está, y me encanta tener el mismo nombre que mi hermosa abuela, a quien no conocí,  pero dejó la mejor herencia posible: ser buena.
