Aloysious
How many people did this woman save from a miserable existence!

TaeGuk Kweenie
What an interesting person!! She needs to get better known.

Cizinka
And she accomplished all of this by the age of 24?

Janut
And if my math is correct, she died at age 24 just think what she could’ve done if she just lived!

Ken
Many scientists have died young to allow others to reap the benefits of their discoveries . Where would we be without them ?

Smart Kitten
What a wonderful woman. So sad that still today we have so little information about those fascinating women.

Debra
Aloysious, a whole lot. I would imagine

Monica
Best birthday present! Knowledge and information

In 2019, the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine added Alice Ball's name to the frieze atop its main building, along with Florence Nightingale and Marie Curie, in recognition of their contributions to science and global health research.

jean
glad they acknowledged she for her hard work instead of Hanson and also that she was an African American. Sorry she died so young...she may have discovered the cure for cancer..

jean
glad they corrected history and acknowledged she was black

mezo, Alice Ball died before she could publish her work then two men did steal her work and didn’t give her any credit for her contributions, specifically Arthur Dean, who was president of the College of Hawaii, and Richard Wrenshall, a chemistry professor. They passed her work as their own.

Player #120374466, Because being black in 1900’s was almost an impossible hurdle to overcome and worse for a woman. Mixed race children were not acceptable. Did you know married women could not have a credit card in their name until the mid 1970’s? Her accomplishments are extraordinary!

Hansen disease

Akamai 👑 Haulana
Hansen's, among other foreign diseases devastated Kanaka, the native people of Hawai'i. A colony on Kalaupapa, Moloka'i segregated infected...

Woman on Fire
jay, Probably due to the process of isolation of the oil to create the cure.

mezo
awesome. I've never heard of her. but it's seems to be just one more person being eliminated from existence because of their successes in truly helping and healing the people.
