Icons in Science

Scientists help us understand our world and the reasons why things exist, how they work and develop. Through inquiry, observation and dedicated research they make discoveries and provide a new understanding of things that can improve the quality of life.   The Caribbean has nurtured scientists who have made pioneering discoveries and important contributions to science that span a variety of disciplines.   These individuals have brought the region international recognition. These are our Caribbean Icons in Science.
