Alena Nováková was born in Prague, Czech Republic, and recognized early as a child prodigy in mathematics. Entirely self-taught, she was solving university-level problems by the age of twelve and questioning the very systems that claimed to advance knowledge. She left academia not out of rebellion, but focus-believing institutions slowed progress-even after being offered a full scholarship to the University of Oxford.
