# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Gabriel Lippmann was born on 16 August 1845 in France. An applied physicist, he developed the Lippmann plate, a photographic method that reproduced colors not through chemistry but by harnessing the interference phenomenon — light waves colliding and preserving their hues in the emulsion itself. The work earned him the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1908. He died on 12 July 1921, leaving behind a technique so precise it required no pigment, only physics.
