Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam, 2008 Hoover Medal Recipient Dr. Avul Pakir Jainulabdeen Abdul Kalam was born on October 15, 1931, in Tamil Nadu, India. A preeminent scientist, a gifted engineer, and a true visionary, this past president of India is also a humble humanitarian in every sense of the word. Dr. Kalam’s meteoric rise from extremely modest beginnings to the highest levels of science and technology in India’s successful space and defense programs and ultimately to the position of the country’s universally admired and respected president, is the stuff of which legends are made. Upliftment of the rural population of India has always been of prime concern to Dr. Kalam. Many of the projects that Dr. Kalam launched during his career have been ingeniously designed to bring some of the advantages of our modern world to the remote and economically deprived segments of the Indian population at an affordable price. A prime example is the key role Dr. Kalam played in the creation of “telemedicine,” a system that helps connect rural hospitals with super-specialty medical centers in India and abroad. The success of this project proved that it is indeed possible to bring cutting edge medical care to even the most isolated rural areas. Yet another of Dr. Kalam’s spectacular achievements has been the establishment of the Society of Biomedical Technology (SBMT) in 1993. This initiative that provided diverse opportunities to several million people was designed to combine Indian defense techno...
