Due to financial reasons, I dropped out of school after eight years of formal schooling.
From Philip Emeagwali
I dropped out of high school four times between the ages of 12 to 17.
During the week that I arrived in the United States, I saw an airport, used a telephone, used a library, talked with a scientist, and was shown a computer for the first time in my life.
The 65,536 processors were inside the Connection Machine.
Briefly, to program it requires an absolute understanding of how all 65,536 processors are interconnected.
Because I am not formally trained in the medical sciences, I can bring in new ideas to AIDS research and the cross-fertilization of ideas from different fields could be a valuable contribution to finding the cure for AIDS.
