Excerpt: Luis Federico Leloir (September 6, 1906 - December 2, 1987) was an Argentine doctor and biochemist who received the 1970 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. He was the first Spanish-speaking scientist to ever receive the award. Although born in France, Leloir received the majority of his education at the University of Buenos Aires and was director of the private research group Fundación Instituto Campomar until his death in 1987.

He is also credited with inventing salsa golf. Luis Leloir is buried in La Recoleta Cemetery, Buenos Aires.
