ABSTRACT

Insulin discovery has been always related with Banting and Macleod, but the historic true is another. A huge number of researchers set the bases for the discovery that by cientific merit corresponded to rumanian professor Nicolae Constantine Paulescu, whom, for different reasons was denied the Nobel Prize. The objective of this paper is to recognize the life achievements and cientific contributions of doctor Paulescu and the circumstances that he experienced in relation to the Medicine Nobel Prize of 1923 by the insulin discovery.
