Being saints is not limited to working miracles, but also to show mercy and love. Therefore, the name of Dr. Magyd Yacoub may be remembered one day as the saint of mercy.
He decided to dedicate his time to scientific research knowing that every new scientific discovery is an investment for all humanity and for the future of all generations.
