The first scientist discovered smallpox in an Egyptian mummy dating back to 1157 B.C. This first scientist was Abu Bakr Muhammad ibn Zakariya al-Razi.
Edward Jenner observed that milkmaids who had contracted cowpox, a less severe disease, did not get smallpox, a much more deadly illness. He hypothesized that exposure to cowpox could provide immunity against smallpox. To test this, he inoculated a young boy with material taken from a cowpox sore, and later exposed him to smallpox, finding that he did not contract the disease. This led Jenner to develop the first successful smallpox vaccine, laying the groundwork for immunology.
Chimpanzees were first scientifically described in the late 18th century. The species was named Troglodytes niger by the German naturalist Johann Friedrich Blumenbach in 1775. However, Western awareness of chimpanzees significantly increased after the 19th century, particularly due to the work of explorers and naturalists who studied them in their natural habitats.
The German biologist's first name was Theodor.

He merely drew conclusions from his observations. Which by the way have since all been proven wrong. His first name was Charles.

Isaac Newton is credited with being the first scientist to discover that white light is actually composed of a spectrum of colors. He achieved this by passing white light through a prism, which separated it into its component colors, creating a rainbow spectrum.
