Professor of Fetal Medicine, Dr. Kypros Nicolaides, will be the guest on the “ΤΕΤ-Α-ΤΕΤ στον ALPHA” show tonight at 11 PM. The interview will focus on his impressive journey from Paphos to the international arena of medical science. Dr. Nicolaides will discuss his memories of his father's imprisonment during the EOKA struggle, his family's relationship with Archbishop Makarios, and his studies in England. He will explain how he became passionate about fetal medicine and how he helped save and give life to thousands of children around the world. The discussion will also touch on questions such as whether there is life before birth, why he is called the “Mad Greek” in Britain, and why he never received the Nobel Prize in Medicine. In addition, he will talk about the documentary that Netflix made about his life and his own battle with cancer. The interview is presented as a confessional conversation with a great Cypriot who honors his country abroad and is expected to be particularly interesting.
