World Science and Technology Day (Día Mundial de la Ciencia y la Tecnología) and Researcher's Day (Día del Investigador) in Argentina is celebrated every April 10 and was established in 1982 by the General Conference of UNESCO in honor of the birth of Dr. Bernardo Houssay (1887), physician and pharmacist.
Houssay was the first Argentine and Latin American to be awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 1947 for his research in Physiology and Medicine, specifically on the role of the hypophysis or pituitary gland in the regulation of the amount of sugar in the blood through the metabolism of carbohydrates.
