    -Filipino chemist
    Anacleto Del Rosario
    He was a leading Filipino chemist during the Spanish Period
    and was considered the
    Father of Philippine Science and Laboratory.
    His formula for the production of a pure kind of alcohol
    from tuba of a nipa palm won for him the
    first prize at the World Fair in Paris in 1881.
    He extracted castor oil from a native plant called
    palma christi.
    Gregorio Zara
    Filipino scientist
    Gregorio Zara
    Filipino scientist Gregorio Y.Zara (D.Sc. Physics) invented,
    made improvements to, or discovered the following:
    ◇ invented the two-way television telephone or videophone(1955) patented
    as a "photo phone signal separator network"
    ◇ discovered the physical law of electrical kinetic resistance called the Zara
    effect(around 1930).
    ◇ invented an airplane engine that ran on plain alcohol as fuel(1952)
    ◇ improved methods of producing solar energy including creating new designs for a
    solar water heater(SolarSorber),a sun stove, and a solar battery(1960s)
    ◇ invented a propeller-cutting machine(1952)
    ◇ designed a microscope with a collapsible stage
    ◇ helped design the robot Marex X-10

    Baldomero Olivera
    Filipino Chemist
    Baldomero Olivera
    Baldomero Olivera(born 1941)is a Filipino chemist most famous for discovery
    of many conesnail toxins important for neuroscience. These molecules, called
    conotoxins led to a breakthrough in the study of ion channels and neuro-muscular
    synapses. He discovered and first characterized E. coli DNA ligase,a key enzyme of
    genetic engineering and recombinant DNA technology.
    Olivera graduated from the University of the Philippines in 1960.He got a PhD from
    the California Institute of Technology(1966)in Biophysical Chemistry, followed by
    postdoctoral work at Stanford University from 1966-1968.In 1970,he moved to the
    University of Utah, where he is now a Distinguished Professor of Biology. His
    laboratory's discovery was featured on the cover of the international scientific journal
    Science in 1990.He was Harvard 2007"Scientist of the Year".
    He is a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Professor, has been elected into the Institute
    of Medicine and the American Philosophical Society, and became an Elected Member
