Bing Bang Theory interview

Actress Mayim Bialik from the Big Bang Theory gave a candide interview on the parallels of her TV chracter with her real life as a PhD Neuroscientist on NPRs Talk of the Nation Science Friday with Ira Flatow.

Her background has allowed Mayim to give depth and accuracy to her character on the show. With the filming of the show it also allows her better work life balance than she would have working strictly as a neuroscientist.

Update: The Hollywood Reporter has a very good behind the scenes look at the cast and crew of the Big Bang Theory at the end of the 2012 season.

Mayim Balik also gives an interview about nerd on nerd romances at Comic Con in 2012.

Working with a variety of people from PhD scientists to students and artists makes my job very interesting. I can relate to the characters on this show not in their mixed up relationships as much as their joy on working problems or throwing themselves fully into a project. The passionate intensity to discover new things or to make the mundane really cool makes me want to get up in the morning.
