June Almeida

Who is she?

A Scottish self-taught virologist💉

The first person who identified a coronavirus🦠, the virus family to which Covid-19 belongs 👑

Why is she in the spotlight?

Her work has been very useful👏: when Chinese scientists discovered Covid-19, they used her method🔬, which she developed half a century ago😮, to observe the viruses’ structure thanks to antibodies
