Creswell Eastman is an Australian endocrinologist renowned for his research on iodine deficiency, particularly his pivotal discovery in the 1990s that linked a cluster of cases of cretinism in a remote Chinese village to inadequate iodine levels in the diet. His findings led to significant public health interventions, including the mandatory iodization of salt in China, which have had a lasting impact on reducing iodine deficiency disorders.
