Insulin was actually discovered by Nicolae Paulescu, a Romanian scientist in 1916. His work predated that of Fredrick Banting by five years, although Banting went on the win the Nobel Prize along with John Mcleod, although Charles Best was not recognized for the contributions to their re-discovery of insulin. The common misconception that insulin was "invented" by Canadians persists to this day. Also, insulin is a naturally occurring substance and thus was discovered. However, different means by which it can by synthesized have been invented.
