The world’s top scientists can have a sense of humor, too, you know.

Just check out the resume of new Nobel laureate Jacques Dubochet.

The professor at the University of Lausanne in Switzerland was one of three scientists to scoop the 2017 Nobel Prize for Chemistry on Wednesday.

But as Twitter user Oliver Fuchs discovered, the researcher took a rather lighthearted approach when working up his CV:

Dubochet detailed how he was “conceived by optimistic parents” in October 1941. He also noted the date of when he was “no longer scared of the dark” and explained why becoming the “first official dyslexic in the canton of Vaud” in 1955 ended up benefitting him.

Dubochet’s resume has not yet been updated with the accolade, however.
