Why Is Manuel Mateus Ventura Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Manuel Mateus Ventura was a Brazilian biophysicist, biochemist, and educator. Ventura graduated with a degree in agronomy from the Federal University of Ceará in 1943, and then took a position as assistant professor of organic chemistry in the same department. At that time, scientific research in Brazilian universities was not well supported, especially in the northeastern part of the country, and there was little scientific infrastructure. Ventura's research career began with a series of theoretical calculations of physicochemical properties of organic compounds based on data in the published literature. He became full professor in 1950, and initiated a program of research in plant biochemistry and edaphology a branch of soil science. The aims of this research program were to understand "the action of metabolic inhibitors on the opening and closing of stomata" and to understand "the action of antibiotics on the growth of higher plants". Ventura was instrumental in the founding of the Institute of Chemistry and Technology at UFC in 1958, and served as its director until 1968.
