This infographic highlights many scientists whose work has saved countless lives. The estimates come from @ScienceHeroes (https://www.scienceheroes.com/). It's tough to quantify the exact impact of specific innovations, and I approach such figures with a degree of skepticism. No scientist works in isolation; breakthroughs are always a collective effort. #ScienceHeroes #Innovation #CollectiveEffort #Science

El equipo que lleva las Voyager es increíble y como mucho les quedan 4 años de contrato... :D

Recently, two more busts have adorned the entrance of our institute:
Klaus Hasselmann, 2021 #NobelPrize 🏅 laureate and
Reimar Lüst former president of the Max Planck Society and close friend of Hasselmann.
Both now join the bust of Max Planck, the namesake of our research society.
Feel free to visit and let yourselves be inspired by these remarkable figures.

@Cpl43uk The comment about media failing to memorialize scientists is sad but true. I still monitor twitter but what also seemed very sad but true was how many fighting cancer battles seemed to take flight (aka mostly died in their sleep) the last couple of days of 2022. Science example of one of the unsung heroes: my pal turned 70 yesterday, power & water out from storm so she spent most of the day at the open Starbucks doing flow analysis for a vaccine study. #ScienceHeroes
