 Free guess: Gregori Perelman
All other questions are moot, since we have a winner! The person is Gregori Perelman, the person who proved the Poincaré conjecture (with help from other people, like Richard Hamilton). I wasn’t sure if one would call his work ‘scientific’, or research though, so that explains the pass.

IMO, y’all are pretty close to the right answer. I’d like to say the person I chose is a bit on the obscure side, but I do believe he is pretty well known, and deserves to be recognized more.

Dang, I thought it was Andrew Wakefield because you passed on Scientific Research, but I guess not. Darn

By my judgement, and I think most would agree on this, no. Possibly debatable, but I think it’s pretty firmly no.
