Máximo Valentinuzzi (1907-1985): perhaps the first Latin American biophysicist, biomathematician, and bioengineer.
My father was always studying, full of dedication and encouragement, my mother always pushed me to study, later on my wife, during our 55 years together, backed me up to study while she also kept studying… all three of them, unrelentingly, almost stubbornly, but always joyfully, even in the worst troubled moments … What else could I do? Besides, and more importantly, isn't it nice, good, rewarding, liberating, to fill the spirit while looking up into the skies, away from the worldly thorns and its forever crazy self-destructing search of money and power? Finally, and most relevant, a full spirit may alleviate human pains.
