Galileo Galilei (1564- 1642)

• Creating one of the first modern telescopes, Galileo revolutionized
our understanding of the world, successfully proving the Earth
revolves around the Sun and not the other wat around. His works
‘Two New Sciences’ laid the groundwork for the science of Kinetics
and strength of materials.

Maria Curie (1867-1934)

• Polish physicist and chemist. Discovered radiation and helped to
apply it in the field of X-ray. She won the Nobel Prize in both
Chemistry and Physics.

James Clerk Maxwell (1831-1879)

• Maxwell made great strides in understanding electromagnetism. His
research in electricity and kinetics laid the foundation for quantum
physics. Einstein said of Maxwell, “The work of James Clerk Maxwell
changed the world forever”.

Isaac Newton (1642-1726)

• Newton was a polymath who made investigation into a whole range
of subjects including mathematics, optics, physics, and astronomy.
In his ‘Principia Mathematica’, published in 1687, he laid the
foundations for classical mechanics, explaining the law of gravity
and the law of motions.

Aristotle (384 BCE-322 BCE)

• A great early Greek scientist who made many types of research in
the natural sciences including botany, zoology, physics, astronomy,
chemistry, meteorology and geometry.
Charles Darwin (1809-1882)
• Darwin developed his theory of evolution against backdrop of
disbelief and skepticism. He collected evidence over 20 years and
publishes his conclusions in ‘On the Origin of Species’ (1859).

Albert Einstein (1879-1955)

• Revolutionized modern physics with his general theory or relatively.
He won the Nobel Prize in Physics (1921) for his discovery of the
Photoelectric effect, which formed the basis of Quantum Theory.

Otto Hahn (1879-1968)

• Hahn was a German chemist who discovered nuclear fission (1939).
He was a pioneering scientist in the field of radiochemistry and
discovered radioactive elements and nuclear isomerism (1921). He
was awarded the Noble Prize for Chemistry in 1994.

Louis Pasteur (1822-1895)

• Pasteur contributed greatly towards the advancement if medical
sciences developing cures for rabies, anthrax and other infections
diseases. Also invented the process of pasteurization to make milk
safer to drink. He probably saved lives than any other person.

Nikola Tesla (1856-1943)

• Tesla worked on electromagnetism and AC current. He is credited
with many patents from electricity to radio transmission and playeda
key role in the development of modern electricity.

Julian A. Banzon
• Outstanding scientist, scholar, professor and biophysical chemist.
Food science is his major contribution in the philippines. He was
Apioneer in exploring alternative sources of fuel iun the philippines,
with a particular focus on coconut and sugarcsne. He was as both a

in 1881 and was published at El Siglo Medico in Madrid.

Ramon Cabanos Barba

• Filipino inventor and horticulturist best known for inventing a way to
induce more flowers in mango tress using ethrel and potassuim
nitrate. Most of his experiment were dealing with fast and mass
production that enables plant to flower thrice instead of once in a
year. He also developed tossue culture procedure on banan palnt
and sugarcane which is also a disease free palnting materials.

fluorescent bulb and General Electric Company bought his patent
rights and manufactured and sold his invention.

which helps prevent beriberi. His discovery helped reduce the cases
of beriberi in the Philippines and in other countries. He was the first
Filipino nutritionist who gained multiple international recognition
and awards.

Angel Alcala
• Discovered over 50 new species of amphibians and reptiles, and
pioneered marine conservation efforts in the Philippines.

Father Ignacio Mercado

• He was the first local botanist to record more than 200 medical
plant’s name and benefits that thrived in the Philippines. Created
beautiful artwork using plants and tested the effects of plants to
himself.
