This also means that Cantor will be able to attract the brightest researchers to assist him, says Georg F. Weber, an immunologist working with Cantor...
David Ho would be the first to say that he cannot take all the credit. It was an immunologist from Los Angeles named Michael Gottlieb who in 1981 reported the first cases of what was then called gay pneumonia. It was the U.S. Centers for Disease Control that alerted doctors to the gathering epidemic and established that the infection was transmitted through blood transfusions, tainted needles and unprotected sex.

...expected to exert considerable influence on other judges who are grappling with similar suits brought by thousands of women. One reason: Jones took the unusual step of appointing four independent experts to assess the purported link between the rupture of silicone implants and specific physical complaints. These experts--an immunologist, an immunologist/toxicologist, a rheumatologist and a polymer chemist--arrived at the same conclusion reached by many others, including Dr. Marcia Angell, executive editor of the New England Journal of Medicine: localized problems, notably the painful hardening of breast tissue, can accompany implants, but as yet no compelling evidence links...

Intrigued, Castro directed Dr. Manuel Limonta, a young Cuban hematologist and immunologist, to set up a facility to manufacture the protein. At first, Limonta and his small staff used human blood cells to produce interferon. But soon the advantages of recombinant DNA technology became apparent, and Limonta started making interferon in giant vats of genetically engineered yeast...
