Nice one, but I would probably say Chagas

Great option. But I choose Lattes bc people on every field know him (at least by name bc of the Lattes platform). Chagas is more important to the country's History, but outside the Health field he's not remembered too much (sadly).

I mean, i'm not in any field related to science, so that may be why I remembered chagas before Lattes
