All scientists are researchers, but not all researchers are scientists
Even though we are restless by memorizing science books, we do not know the exact definition of a scientist. Moreover, in the crowd of science traders these days, it is difficult to find a scientist.
A scientist is a person who adds something new to the knowledge of science. There has always been life in trees. But science did not know that. In 1901, Jagadish Basu proved that trees have life. In this way, he added something new to the knowledge of science. He is a scientist.
The man you see in the picture is Jonas Sack. This man discovered the polio vaccine in 1950. He died in 1995. When you see him, you think - oh, if only I could hug the man to my chest. What, are you surprised? Many scientists have discovered many things. However, why do I have special love for the inventor of the polio vaccine?
He deliberately did not patent (copy-write) his discovery. He wanted people to get this vaccine at a low price. That is why the polio vaccine is so cheap today that it is distributed free of charge. If he wanted to earn money by patenting, he could have earned 7 billion dollars at that time. If you calculate the value of money at that time, he could have become as rich as Bill Gates. This is the difference between a scientist and a science businessman.
To discover science, one has to do research. That is why all scientists are researchers. If you wish, you can do research on simple topics. For example, which school for girls or school for boys, does more rules and regulations apply. To understand that, choose 20 schools. Go to those schools, watch the activities of teachers and students, interview them. In this way, find out which school adheres to more rules. Now, publish the results of your research.
Well, you have become a researcher (but not a scientist). In this way, people can do research on any simple topic, become researchers. Scientists research on science. To become a scientist, you have to research on scientists.
