Anatol Zhabotinsky is recognized among Jewish contributors to Science & Medicine — Biophysicist known for the Belousov-Zhabotinsky oscillating chemical reaction
Anatol Zhabotinsky was a biophysicist who, building on Boris Belousov's discovery, characterized the Belousov–Zhabotinsky reaction, the classic example of a chemical oscillator that spontaneously produces sustained temporal and spatial patterns. His work became foundational for the study of nonlinear chemical dynamics and self-organization. He was of Jewish origin and later worked at Brandeis University in the United States.
