TIME - Heroes of the Year

Time Magazine just announced its Heroes of the Year for 2021, the four scientists ‘Miracle Workers’ who made the Covid vaccine possible. Among them is Katalin Karikó, a fellow Hungarian whom I had the pleasure of getting acquainted with.

Katalin is a biochemist researcher whose trailblazing work over the past decades was fundamental for the rapid development of the vaccine. Her relentless vision, courage and determination in the face of tremendous obstacles along the way is story of true inspiration.
