FINAL REMARKS

So I would like to close by thanking the organizers of this symposium for inviting me to talk about Maria Goeppert Mayer. Her work changed the field of nuclear physics, it certainly changed me, and the story is not over yet. The most exciting part, understanding nuclear structure in terms of low energy QCD is now within reach, but there is still a lot of work ahead. Thank you for your attention.
