Ukraine's Smarty Pants Scientists - Part 1
Manage episode 383954174 series 3284458
Ukrainians are pretty smart - so smart we have scientists! The first world-renown scientist is Yuriy Drohobych - the once rector of the University of Bologna in the 15th century who was a philosopher, astronomer and medical doctor for the king of Poland! We also have two evolutionists - Nicholas Miklouho-Maclay (anthropologist and biologist who was as important in Australia) and Elie Metchnikoff (Nobel Prize winner in immunology). The inventor of Xrays - Ivan Puluj, and an engineer who invented the first electric tram - Fyodor Pirotsky, are also in the mix in this episode all about pre-Soviet Ukrainian scientists!
