This is Charles Best and Frederick Banting. They were Canadian scientists that won the Nobel Prize for the discovery of insulin in 1923.
Banting was 32 when he received the Nobel Prize and he chose to share half the prize money with Best who was his assistant and just 24 years old at the time.
Banting refused to put his name on the patent and instead sold it to the University of Toronto for $1. He thought it was unethical to profit from a discovery that would save millions of lives. "Insulin belongs to the world, not to me," he said.
Unfortunately, the drug today has been subjected to price gouging by pharmaceutical companies with the average price per month rising to $450 in 2016.
