Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi (1893-1986) was a Hungarian biochemist who received the Nobel Prize in physiology and medicine in 1937 for his discoveries concerning vitamin C and its role in the body's metabolism. He was a prominent figure in the field of cell and molecular biology. While studying the chemical structure of latex and paprika, Szent-Gyorgyi discovered Functions of cell that control life processes. This discovery led to greater understanding of the functions and his work in muscle chemistry revealed the role of vitamin C and identified the biochemical "building blocks" of proteins and enzymes. In addition to his scientific accomplishments, Szent-Gyorgyi campaigned passionately for international collaboration in science and the ethical use of biological and medical knowledge. He was an avid advocate for peace and outreach to developing countries.
