Marie DalyThe first African American woman to earn a Ph.D in chemistry
Percy Juliandeveloped the anti-glaucoma drug physostigmine. he received his undergraduate degree from DePauw University in Greencastle, Indiana
Samuel Massie Jrthe first black professor at the U.S. Naval Academy, making him the first black to teach full-time at any US military academy. He received a master's degree in chemistry from Fisk University and a doctorate in organic chemistry from Iowa State University. He was a professor of chemistry at the Naval Academy, became the chairman of the department of chemistry and co-founded the Black Studies program.
Marie Winston-Jacksonone of a small group of African American women who worked as aeronautical engineers, called "human computers," at NASA during the Space Age. she was promoted to aeronautical engineer and developed expertise working with wind tunnels and analyzing data on aircraft flight experiments.
Dorothy Johnson VaughanAfrican-American mathematics teacher who became one of the leading mathematical engineers in early days of the aerospace industry. After the U.S. defense industry desegregated, she worked with leading computer operators and engineers, becoming an expert in the FORTRAN programming coding language at NASA. She worked on the SCOUT Launch Vehicle Program that shot satellites into space.
Katherine G. Johnsonperformed the complex calculations that enabled humans to successfully achieve space flight.
Guion S. Bluforda decorated Air Force pilot in Vietnam before joining NASA in the late 1970s. In 1983, he became the first African American to travel into space when he served as a mission specialist aboard the space shuttle Challenger
George CarruthersHe earned his Ph.D. in aeronautical and astronautical engineering at the University of Illinois in 1964 and began working at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory. His telescope and image converter was used to identify molecular hydrogen in space and his ultraviolet camera/spectograph was used by Apollo 16 during the flight to the moon.
Earnest Everettepioneered many areas on the physiology of development, including fertilization, experimental parthenogenesis, hydration, cell division, dehydration in living cells and ultraviolet carcinogenic radiation effects on cells.
Daniel Hale Williamsone of the first physicians to perform open-heart surgery in the United States and founded a hospital with an interracial staff.
Robert R. TaylorThe Massachusetts Institute of Technology had its first African-American graduate
Ben CarsonNeurosurgeon that separated Siamese twins.
Aprille Ericssonthe first woman to earn her Ph. D in Mechanical Engineering from Howard University, and the first Black woman to obtain a Ph. D in Engineering from NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center.
Mark Deanhelped develop a number of landmark technologies for IBM, including the color PC monitor and the first gigahertz chip. He holds three of the company's original nine patents. He also invented the Industry Standard Architecture system bus with engineer Dennis Moeller, allowing for computer plug-ins such as disk drives and printers.
Mae JemisonAmerican physician and NASA astronaut known for being the first black woman to travel in space. She holds a degree in chemical engineering from Stanford and a degree in medicine from Cornell.
Norbert Rillieuxinvented a revolutionary new process for refining sugar. His most famous invention was a multiple effect evaporator, which harnessed steam energy from boiling sugarcane juice, greatly reducing refining costs.
