NSTMF Laureates have changed the world as we know it. Every major invention you can think of–from the internet to vaccines–were discovered by a Laureate. And while we’ve grown accustomed to these discoveries in our everyday lives, we know little about the people behind their creation. To inspire a new generation of innovators, we set out to reframe Laureates in light of their contemporary relevance and biographical stories.
