Fleming's hypothesis was that the Penicillium produce a chemical that can kill ... Alexander Fleming was a scientist, born near Darvel in Ayrshire, Scotland.

The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 1945 was awarded jointly to Sir Alexander Fleming, Ernst Boris Chain and Sir Howard Walter Florey for the discovery of penicillin and its curative effect in various infectious diseases.
Alexander Fleming Middle School was created in 1957.
Louis Pasture discovered the principles of vaccinations, microbial fermentation, and developed the pasteurization process. Alexander Fleming found penicillin from the mold Penicillium notatum.
Mold spores are extremely tiny, about the size of dust particles. They exist just about everywhere -- you are most likely breathing in a few of them into your lungs right this second. It just so happens that a few penicillum mold spores got into Fleming's petri dish; who knows how or when.
Fleming discovered the anti-bacterial properties of penicillin at the University of London, in England, part of the United Kingdom.
Born in 1881, Fleming was educated like a typical middle-class Englishman he was. He attended Darvel School, Kilmarnock Academy, and the Royal Polytechnical Institution. He entered medical school in 1903 and graduated in 1906. He obtained a bachelor of science in bacteriology in 1908.
So my GUESS is that he began his formal education about 1887, and received his final degree in 1908.
Sir Alexander Fleming was a Scottish biologist, pharmacologist and botanist. He is best known for his discovery of the enzyme lysozyme in 1923 and the antibiotic substance penicillin grown from mould in 1928.
Sir Alexander Fleming received his early education at Louden Moor School and later studied medicine at St. Mary's Hospital Medical School in London. He received multiple degrees in medicine during his education and went on to have a successful career as a scientist and researcher.
