Early Life and Education
Dr. Severo Ochoa was born on September 24, 1905, in Luarca, a small coastal town in Asturias, Spain. From an early age, he displayed an intense curiosity and passion for science, influenced by his uncle, a professor of anatomy. After completing his primary education in Málaga, Ochoa went on to study medicine at the University of Madrid, where he earned his medical degree in 1929. It was during this time that he developed a deep interest in biochemistry and physiology, disciplines that would define his illustrious career.
