Why didn't Carlos Chagas won a medicine noble prize, /sci/?
Where his achievements and discoveries not that impressive or was it because he was Brazilian?
Are all the science nobel prizes also a joke, or only the peace and literature prizes?
Tell me, /sci/
((()))
Well, maybe he wasn't jewish enough.
because medicine is just memorization

His familyname doesn't have enough precious metals in it
Because he found the chagas disease and the insect who is infected and transmit the disease to humans, other scientists couldn't do that.
In northwest, northeast brazil i don't know exactly there was a poor girl who came to chagas and said my dad is dying, and then he came into the fathers house and see that there was a man with chagas disease, and see the insect that was in the same place
Neglected tropical diseases are neglected for a reason. 1st world countries don't give a fuck about them
I think the Brazilian Medical Establishment lobbied against him, he deserved one.

César Lattes was the greatest Brazillian Physicist.
Lattes almost won a Physics nobel prize of 1950,
because He was one of discoverers of the Pion elementary particle.
He discovered Pion with His adviser Cecil Powell (from University of Bristol)
But only Cecil Powell, his adviser won the prize.
He was the main assistant of Cecil Powell.
César Lattes argued that his adviser stole the Prize.
However in this case, Lattes was a Jew.
Lattes was a son of Jewish Immigrants from Italy, raised in Brazil.
