via Walter Jessen . Alfred Nobel was born on this day, in 1833
President Clinton declared Oct 21 to be National Biomedical Research Day -as is every day, for me 🙂 He said, “There is an intriguing quality to biomedical research: A discovery does not always predict its future uses. As a consequence, it is essential that the Nation continue to champion broad-based studies of both the normal and the disease processes. These studies will yield a fundamental understanding of biological systems and will provide us with the foundation of knowledge needed to ensure successful responses to current and future health problems.”
Cheers! to that sentiment!
Happy Birthday, Alfred. A man who changed the way he was perceived- and for the better. Well done.
I didn’t know Oct 21 is that day! Thanks for bringing it up.
