Marcos Moshinsky was born on 20 April 1921, in Kiev, Ukraine, and
em- igrated to Mexico at the age of four. He began work at the
Universidad N acional Aut6noma de Mexico on 1 January 1942, as a
laboratory assis- tant working on the measurement of cosmic rays.
He pursued his graduate studies at Princeton University, and wrote
his thesis under the supervision of Professor Eugene Wigner. Since
1949, and in spite of many visits and temporary posts held abroad,
Moshinsky has been based in Mexico. Through example and
encouragement, Moshinsky may be credited to a large extent with the
shaping of Mexican scientific research. He has di- rected 40 B. Sc.
, M. Sc. , and Ph. D. theses, and published over 200 scientific
articles and four books; he holds all the Mexican science prizes,
and sev- eral international ones, being a member of 11 academies of
learning. Talent and circumstance have placed Marcos Moshinsky at
the origin of several of the enterprises of the Mexican and Latin
American scientific communities: he was founding editor of the
Revista Mexicana de F{sica from 1952 to 1967; the Escuela
Latinoamericana de Fisica was initiated and five times organized by
him in Mexico; he was founding member and later president of the
Academia de la Investigaci6n Cientifica (1962-1963), the Sociedad
Mexicana de Fisica (1967-1969), and the Centro Internacional de
Fisica y Matematicas A plicadas (1986-), in Cuernavaca.
