Genius and goodness of a National Scientist

The science community is still mourning the demise on October 24, 2015 of a great Filipino scientist.

National Scientist Dr. Benito Vergara, who succumbed to a heart attack at 81, was remembered by his loving family, friends, colleagues, fellow Academicians and National Scientists, and the rest of the science community, during a necrological service held in his honor at the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) in Bicutan, Taguig City (Metro Manila) five days later on October 29.
