Erio Tosatti

Few have reached out more to physicists in developing nations than Italian scientist Erio Tosatti. 

Tosatti was awarded the 2005 Tate Medal for persistently helping scientists from developing countries and working with them to elevate their research programs to international standards.  His attention and concern for scientists from these nations, according to the AIP Tate Medal committee, “has probably left much deeper marks in many countries than many of the programs that make the headlines.”
