1. Mario Molina Mario Molina is a Mexican scientist and chemist. In 1995, he won a Nobel Prize for his research on how man-made compounds affect the ozone layer. He became interested in science as a young boy and created a chemistry lab in the bathroom. In 1968, he moved to the United States and earned an advanced degree in physical chemistry from UC Berkeley. He then taught at MIT and UC San Diego. Mario Molina received the Presidential Medal of Freedom from President Obama in 2013. His contributions changed the course of history as he raised awareness on how important it is for us to protect the ozone layer. Famous quote: “The planet is just too small for these developing countries to repeat the economic growth in the same way that the rich countries have done it in the past. We don’t have enough natural resources, we don’t have enough atmosphere. Clearly, something has to change.” Dr. José Barbosa y Dr. Mario Molina | © Universidad Técnica Particular de Loja/Flickr
2. Dr. Helen Rodriguez Trías Dr. Helen Rodriguez Trias was born in Puerto Rico but moved to New York City when she was young. She became the first Latina president of the American Health Association in 1993. She experienced bias for being Latina and was placed in a class for academically challenged students because of it. Even though she spoke English well and got good grades, they still thought it was a handicap to be Hispanic. Dr. Rodriguez Trías got her medical degree from the Universidad de Puerto Rico with high honors. She founded the first center for newborns in Puerto Rico and served as Director of Pediatrics at Lincoln Hospital in New York. Dr. Trias also led the New York City Department of Health Mental Hygiene and brought national attention to the devastation caused by AIDS and HIV. Famous quotes: “I hope I’ll see in my lifetime a growing realization that we are one world.” “No one is going to have quality of life unless we support everyone’s quality of life… Not on a basis of do-goodism, but because of a real commitment… it’s our collective and personal health that’s at stake.” LA District Health Expo 2011 | © U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Los Angeles District/Flickr 3. Sabrina Gonzalez Pasterski At 28, Sabrina Gonzalez Pasterski already has a long list of accomplishments. When she was 14 years old, she was the youngest human being to build an airplane, certify it airworthy, and conduct the first flight in that same aircraft. She studied physics at MIT and was the first female to win the MIT Physics Orloff Scholarship award. The list goes on and on. Sabrina is a first generation Cuban American who has been called the next Einstein. When she was 24, she started her doctorate degree in physics at Harvard. In 2015, she completed a solo research paper on electromagnetic memory which Stephen Hawking cited in his research that was published the year after. Famous quotes: “When I want to motivate myself to do more, like, if there’s a particular task that I want to do but haven’t been able to do it, and I see that someone else has done it, I think ‘If they can do it, I can do it.” “The access to content—what you can learn, what you can study, is growing, so anyone can learn anything—even in their home. You can take classes and listen to lectures from Harvard and other places online. Access to content and access to each other.” Sabrina Gonzalez Pasterski | © CommonsWikipedia.org 4. Alfredo Quiñones-Hinojosa Alfredo Quiñones-Hinojosa is a world-renowned researcher and neurosurgeon who runs the research lab at the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida. Quiñones-Hinojosa and his team have published more than 150 scientific studies on the development of brain cancer. He also leads the National Institute of Health initiative to find a cure for brain cancer and has worked relentlessly to save patients with brain cancer. He also developed minimally-invasive neurosurgical techniques with the use of nanotechnology which have been a game-changer in the medical field. Famous quotes: “I’m not a genius. I just worked really, really hard, and I want our generation, our children and our future generations to realize that they can fulfill the same dreams.” “You have to have passion for everything you do, and you’ve got to look at the positive side.” Alfredo Quiñones-Hinojosa | © CommonsWikipedia.org See also: 10 Benefits of Learning a Foreign Language 5. César Milstein César Milstein is a Nobel Prize winning biochemist who has opened new doors in the diagnosis and treatment of disease since the 1970s. In 1975, his study on monoclonal antibodies helped develop a technique for the unlimited production of monoclonal antibodies. This is a type of antibody made by identical immune cells that enable more accurate diagnoses. Thanks to Milstein’s efforts, monoclonal antibodies now serve as treatments for autoimmune diseases. Famous quote: “What attracted me to immunology was that the whole thing seemed to revolve around a very simple experiment: take two different antibody molecules and compare their primary sequences. The secret of antibody diversity would emerge from that. Fortunately, at the time I was sufficiently ignorant of the subject not to realize how naive I was being.
