Jacqueline Roumeguère-Eberhardt (27 November 1927 – 29 March 2006) was a French anthropologist (born South African), research director at the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS) and Africa specialist.
 She conducted pioneering research in Southern Africa (among the Venda, Tsonga, Shona, Lozi, Bushmen), Central (among the Gbaya) and Kenya (among the Maasai, Samburu, El Molo, Rendille and unidentified hominids), which led her to develop the project "Totemic Geography of Africa "(TGA).
 During her career, she has collected valuable fieldwork material (interviews, notes, audio and audiovisual recordings, photographs, objects) which now constitute a substantial archive.
 She is the author of numerous scientific publications (articles, books and movies) in French and English.
Marie Skłodowska Curie ( ; ] ; ] ; 7 November 18674 July 1934; born Maria Salomea Skłodowska; ] ) was a Polish and naturalized-French physicist and chemist who conducted pioneering research on radioactivity.
 She was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, the first person and only woman to win twice, the only person to win a Nobel Prize in two different sciences, and was part of the Curie family legacy of five Nobel Prizes.
 She was also the first woman to become a professor at the University of Paris, and in 1995 became the first woman to be entombed on her own merits in the Panthéon in Paris.
Maria Curie-Skłodowska University (Polish: "Uniwersytet Marii Curie-Skłodowskiej" , UMCS) was founded October 23, 1944 in Lublin.
 It is named in honour of Marie Curie-Sklodowska.
Arnall Patz (June 14, 1920 – March 11, 2010) was an American medical doctor and research professor at Johns Hopkins University.
 In the early 1950s, Patz discovered that oxygen therapy was the cause of an epidemic of blindness among some 10,000 premature babies.
 Following his discovery, there was a sixty percent reduction in childhood blindness in the United States.
 He also conducted pioneering research in the 1960s into the use of lasers in the treatment of retinal disorders.
 He received the Lasker Award in 1956 for his research into the causes and prevention of blindness and the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2004 for his lifetime of work in the field of ophthalmology.
Leland C. Clark Jr. (December 4, 1918 – September 25, 2005) was an American biochemist born in Rochester, New York.
 He is most well known as the inventor of the Clark electrode, a device used for measuring oxygen in blood, water and other liquids.
 Clark is considered the "father of biosensors", and the modern-day glucose sensor used daily by millions of diabetics is based on his research.
 He conducted pioneering research on heart-lung machines in the 1940s and '50s and was holder of more than 25 patents.
 Although he developed a fluorocarbon-based liquid that could be breathed successfully by mice in place of air, his lifelong goal of developing artificial blood remained unfulfilled at the time of his death.
 He is the inventor of Oxycyte, a third-generation perfluorocarbon (PFC) therapeutic oxygen carrier designed to enhance oxygen delivery to damaged tissues.
Gordon Alan Marlatt Ph.D. (November 26, 1941 – March 14, 2011) was Professor of Psychology at the University of Washington and Director of the Addictive Behaviors Research Center at that institution.
 Born in Vancouver, British Columbia in 1941, he received his Ph.D. in clinical psychology from Indiana University in 1968.
 After serving on the faculties of the University of British Columbia (1968–1969) and the University of Wisconsin–Madison (1969–1972), he joined the University of Washington faculty in the fall of 1972.
 He conducted pioneering research in three areas: harm reduction, brief interventions, and relapse prevention.
Dilbagh Singh Athwal (12 October 1928 – 14 May 2017) was an Indian geneticist, plant breeder and agriculturist, known to have conducted pioneering research in plant breeding.
 He was a former professor and the Head of the Department of Plant Breeding at Punjab Agricultural University and an associate of Norman Borlaug, the renowned biologist and Nobel Laureate, with whom he has collaborated for the introduction of high-yielding dwarf varieties of wheat.
 Popularly known as Father of Wheat Revolution, he was instrumental in developing ‘PV 18’ in 1966 and the most popular amber grained wheat variety ‘Kalyansona’ in 1967.
 In 1967, he joined International Rice Research Institute's management team and ultimately served as the Institute’s first deputy director general.
 His research has also returned several innovations in rice breeding and his body of work has been documented in a number of books and articles published in peer reviewed journals.
 The University of Sydney conferred the degree of Doctor of Philosophy on him in 1955 for his contributions to agriculture and, in 1964, he received Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Prize of the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research, the highest Indian award in the Science category.
 The Government of India awarded him the third highest civilian honour of the Padma Bhushan, in 1975, for his contributions to biological science.
Leslie Charles Coleman (16 June 1878 – 14 September 1954) was a Canadian entomologist, plant pathologist and virologist who worked as the second director of agriculture in Mysore State in southern India.
 He conducted pioneering research on the pests and diseases affecting agriculture in the region and was instrumental in establishing several agricultural research institutions including the University of Agricultural Sciences, Bangalore and the Central Coffee Research Institute at Balehonnur.
 His major contributions to plant protection included measures to control a rot disease of coffee caused by "Pellicularia koleroga" (now "Ceratobasidium noxium") known in southern India as "koleroga".
 Coleman established an inexpensive control measure for another disease, also known as "koleroga", a generic name for rot-causing diseases in Kannada, that caused complete destruction in areca plantations.
 Sprays of inexpensive Bordeaux mixture on the growing crowns helped control infection caused by what he described as "Phytophthora arecae" (now considered as "Phytophthora palmivora").
Juan G. Roederer is a professor of physics emeritus at the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF).
 His research fields are space physics, psychoacoustics, science policy and information theory.
 He conducted pioneering research on solar cosmic rays, on the theory of earth’s radiation belts, neural networks for pitch processing, and currently on the foundations of information theory.
 He is also an accomplished organist.
Russell Henry Chittenden (18 February 1856 – 26 December 1943) was an American physiological chemist.
 He conducted pioneering research in the biochemistry of digestion and nutrition.
