Don Craig Wiley, 1944-2001, was an American microbiologist.
Wiley was world-renowned for finding new ways to help the human immune system battle such viral scourges as smallpox, influenza, AIDS, Ebola, and herpes simplex. His research was honored with the 1993 Cancer Research Institute William B. Coley Award. Harvard called Wiley "one of the most influential biologists of his generation."
Famous quote: "I'm sorry, but I just don't understand anything in biology unless I know what it looks like."
Wiley owned a British racing green-colored Aston Martin.
Don Wiley disappeared on November 15, 2001; his body was found in the Mississippi River a month later and his death was ruled to be an accident. [1][2]
