At the age of 16, he graduated with both Master's and Bachelor's degrees at the Flinders University. He has been considered as "Mr Fix it" by Charles Feffer-man， who is a professor of Mathematics at Princeton Uni?versity ,and many other mathematicians want to interest him in their problems.

This 31-year-old Japanese-American astrophysicist lands him third in this list. At the age of 12， Christo?pher Hirata already worked on college-level courses, around the time most of us were just in the 7th grade. At the age of 13， this gifted kid became the youngest American to have ever won the gold medal in the Inter?national Physics Olympiad.
