Vedic Horoscope for Best, Charles Herbert
American-Canadian medical scientist and one of the co-discoverers of insulin. In 1923, the Nobel Prize Committee honoured Dr. Frederick Banting and J.J.R. Macleod with the Nobel Prize in Medicine for the discovery of insulin, ignoring Charles Best. This incensed Banting who then chose to share half of the prize money with Best. Best died on March 31, 1978.Sy Scholfield quotes "Margaret and Charley: The Personal Story of Dr. Charles Best, the Co-Discoverer of Insulin" by Henry B. M. Best (Dundurn, 2003), pp. 15-16: "in West Pembroke . . . It was there that Charles Herbert Best was born on 27 February 1899: 'At 10:40, Dr. AT Lincoln brought our boy along. I helped and Lulu was more comfortable. Gave chlorol and chloroform. Boy is a good-sized bouncing baby and rests well.'"
