Bright sparks
It isn’t just old professors or managing directors with years of experience behind them who have amazing ideas. Here are three ordinary people who are rocking the world with their bright ideas ... and a lot of hard work!
A Angela Zhang
scientist, California, USA
Angela Zhang had enjoyed reading advanced science papers from a young age. but when she explained to her chemistry teacher that she had been working on a method for curing cancer, her teacher was stunned! Angela had had the idea of developing a nanoparticle that would deliver drugs to tumours without destroying the surrounding tissue. She asked if she could do research on her idea in a laboratory at Stanford University. Angela admitted that she found it all a little bit overwhelming at first. “But then I found that it almost became like a puzzle, being able to decode something," she added. The results of tests on her discovery have been very promising.
B Emily Cummins
inventor, England
Emily Cummins had loved making things from scrap materials ever since her grandfather gave her a hammer when she was only 4 years old. Then, one day, Emily came up with a simple, yet brilliant idea. She designed a portable, eco-friendly fridge that had the potential to help thousands of people in the developing world. ‘taskThe simplest method of cooling something can be seen when you look at how we cool biologically - through sweating or evaporation,” Emily said. So her fridge is made of 2 cylinders one inside the other. As water between the cylinders evaporates in the sun, heat is removed from the inner cylinder, enabling food to be kept inside at a cool 6°C. Emily took her design to poor areas of Africa where people called her ‘the fridge lady’! Now Emily gives talks encouraging young people to follow their dreams.
C Derreck Kayongo
community project leader, Uganda
Has it ever crossed your mind how wasteful it is to use a bar of soap in a hotel only a few times? Well, while staying in a hotel in the USA, Ugandan Derreck Kayongo was very shocked to be told that guests were given new soap every day while 2 million young children were dying every year through lack of hygiene in the developing world. This got him thinking. He wondered if he could recycle the soap for people who needed it. So, in 2009, Derreck started asking hotels if they could donate their used bars of soap that would be otherwise put in the bin. “We sanitise them first,” he explained, “then heat them at very high temperatures, chill them and cut them into final bars, it’s a very simple process, but a lot of hard work." So far, Derreck’s ‘Global Soap Projecttask has provided more than 100,000 bars of soap to 9 countries absolutely free!
