English: Bernardo Alberto Houssay (April 10, 1887 – September 21, 1971) was an Argentine physiologist who, in 1947, received one half Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine for his discovery of the role played by pituitary hormones in regulating the amount of blood sugar (glucose) in animals. He is the first Argentine and Latin American Nobel laureate in the sciences. (He shared the prize with Carl Ferdinand Cori and Gerty Cori, who won for their discoveries regarding the role of glucose in carbohydrate metabolism.)
Español: Bernardo Alberto Houssay (10 de abril de 1887 - 21 de septiembre de 1971), fue un médico y farmacéutico argentino nacido en Buenos Aires. Por sus descubrimientos sobre el papel desempeñado por las hormonas pituitarias en la regulación de la cantidad de azúcar en sangre (glucosa), fue galardonado con el Premio Nobel de Medicina en 1947, siendo el primer argentino y latinoamericano laureado en Ciencias (Carlos Saavedra Lamas, también argentino, recibió en 1936 el Premio Nobel de la Paz). Gracias a su trabajo, la fisiología fue la disciplina médica que mayor vigor y desarrollo tuvo en la Argentina.
