Who are the "great" scientists living at present?

As the saying goes, amateurs watch the excitement and experts watch the doorway. Science is different from art and entertainment, and scientists often admit their academic achievements after death. It's not that people don't know the real hero, but the nature of science determines that the time difference from achievement to widespread influence will generally go through 50- 100 years!

So, who are the scientists who are alive at present and may shine at some time in the future? Let's take a look at the scientists who have made great breakthroughs in various academic fields in recent years! See if there is anything you are familiar with.

Madrid 1

Perhaps his reputation is not as well known as Ray Ma's, but he is definitely a great scientist in the field of high-energy physics research. His holographic principle of string theory triggered a revolution in high-energy physics, and at the same time opened a new window of condensed matter theory, which was known as the "supernova" of high-energy physics!

2. Allen Gusi

Science about the origin of the universe has always been the unremitting pursuit of countless scientists. The most common theory is the Big Bang theory. Allen Gus creatively put forward the viewpoint of inflation cosmology, which completely changed our understanding of the origin of the universe and the structure of the large-scale universe, and was unique in astronomy.

3.[ Name] Stephen Hawking (theoretical physicist, cosmologist and writer)

Hawking is definitely a miracle of mankind. Suffering from neuromuscular atrophy, he made a pioneering study on the nature of black holes and space-time by virtue of superhuman willpower, and proved the singularity theorem of general relativity and the black hole area theorem. He also predicted that with the increase of energy consumption in 2600, the earth would become a "fireball".

Craig venter

He doesn't even have a Chinese name, but his research results have definitely subverted our understanding of life. With his unremitting efforts, the human genome project was completed as scheduled, and the research on new synthetic genes and artificial cells may help mankind realize its beautiful wish of "eternal life"!

5. andrew wiles

A mathematical problem that has puzzled mankind for nearly 300 years is "Fermat's mathematical conjecture", that is, "when the integer n >; 2, the indefinite equation x n+y n = z n has no positive integer solution about x, y, z y and z. " Andrew wiles, with his extraordinary mathematical talent, has successfully overcome this difficult problem and once again proved the creative insight of human beings!

The evolutionary history of mankind is the cognitive history of human development. From witchcraft and religion to philosophy and science, the mainstream cognitive system of human beings has changed from fuzziness and randomness to fixity and systematicness. Thanks that we are in this era of innovation and internet, science may not be alone, which is the luck of science and also the luck of mankind!
