5) Akrit Jaswal

This wonder kid was just 7 years old when he performed his first surgery shocking the entire world.

Akrit Pran Jaswal was born on April 23, 1993 in Nurpur, India.
He started speaking at 10 months of age and was able to learn languages very well.

At five years of age he started reading books of Shakespeare and also assembled medical books.

When he was six, doctors at local hospitals allowed him to observe surgeries as they were so impressed by his intelligence.

With this inspiration he started reading everything that he could on surgeries.

At the age of 7 he performed the surgery of an 8 year old girl with burnt and fused fingers.

The girl’s family could not afford the cost of surgery so they approached Akrit who was the local medical genius.

The surgery was successful and Akrit became the world’s youngest surgeon.

He joined and studied a BSc undergraduate course in medicine at the medical university of India while he was just 12 years old.
His aim is to find a cure for cancer.
