yeah....sure he is a great chemist..we got a good lot of chemists in your country too like Dr. Atul Kumar ...Kumar has won several awards for the design,synthesis and discovery of New Chemical Entities (NCEs) for various therapeutic areas associated with women reproductive health (osteoporosis) and metabolic diseases like diabetes & anti cancer.The discovery of anti-osteoporosis agent CDRI-99-373, this drug was also recognized as a "notable Science and technological achievement" by the Government of India Planning Commission in its ``Report of Steering Committee of Science and Technology for eleventh Five year plan (2007-2012). though his contribution to the chemistry is not as great as Lavoisier's...but his hand of contribution is worth noting .
