Inventive Minds: Ashok Gadgil
Description:
An outbreak of cholera in southern Asia in 1993 inspired Ashok Gadgil to put his training as a scientist to work on a solution. Through first-person videos, artifacts, and archival materials, visitors to Inventive Minds gallery at the Smithsonian National Museum of American History learn about the traits that successful inventors share—insatiable curiosity, keen problem-solving skills, tenacity, and flexibility in the face of failure—and explore the creative spirit of American invention.
