Key work: -discoveries of the principles of vaccination, microbial fermentation and pasteurization.
He is remembered for his remarkable breakthroughs in the causes and prevention of diseases, and his discoveries have saved many lives ever since He reduced mortality from puerperal fever, and created the first vaccines for rabies and anthrax. His medical discoveries provided direct support for the germ theory of diseases.

13 June 1831-5 Nove 1879 |
-Electromagnetism
-Maxwell’s equation
In the millennium poll – a survey of the 100 most prominent physicists – Maxwell was voted the third greatest physicist of all time, behind only Newton and Einstein. His Discoveries helped usher in the era of modern physics, laying the foundation for such fields as special relativity and quantum mechanics.

12 Feb 1809-19 April 1882 |
-Wrote the book Origin of Species
-Theory of natural selection
Charles Darwin was an English naturalist, biologist and geologist who contributed to the science of evolution. In his five- year voyage(1831-1836) on HMS Beagle, he observed the data, concluded and wrote the book.

7. Nikola Tesla
![]() |
10 July 1856-7 Jan1943 |
-best known for his contributions to the design of the modern Alternating Current
-Tesla coil
6. Galileo Galilei
![]() |
15 Feb,1564-8 Jan 1642 |
-He invented thermometer
-His 400 years old telescope is still used by scientists
Galileo is considered as the father of modern science. He is known for his work as astronomer, engineer, mathematician, physicist and philosopher. He studied speed, velocity, freely falling body law of inertia.
Telescope was actually discovered by a Dutch eyeglass maker Hans Lippershey in 1608. In the next year, Galileo improved his design.

5. Archimedes
![]() |
287 BC-212 BC |
Archimedes is one of the greatest mathematicians of the all time. He invented Archmedes' screw, which is a perfect example of engineering and still used in several places. Galileo Galilei of sixteen century called him superhuman.
4. Marie Curie
![]() |
7 Nov,1867-4 July 1934 |
Key Work:- Invented radium and Polonium
-Discovery of Radioactivity with Henri Becquerel
She won Nobel Prize in Physics in1903 and in Chemistry in 1911. She is the only person who won this prize in two different fields of science. She was also the first women to win this prize. She lost her life because of an explosion of radiations during an experiment. Her hard work and sacrifices for science and humanity are all unforgettable.

3. Michael Faraday
![]() |
17 Sep 1791-25 Aug 1867 |
-Albert Einstein kept a picture of Faraday on his study wall, alongside pictures of Isaac Newton and James Clerk Maxwell
-Known for Faraday's law of induction
Electrical Engineering is incomplete without this name.
He established the basic concepts of electromagnetic field and studied the behavior of current.

2. Isaac Newton
![]() |
4 Jan 1643-31 March 1727 |
-Gravitational force
His discovery of Laws of gravitational force is one of the most significant research. It revealed lots of secrets of the universe. It revealed why planets and stars are moving. Why they follow Kepler's Laws. Why things fall on earth. Why the moon does not fall on earth. Newton's contribution to physics and mathematics is matchless.
