Sir Michael Anthony Epstein Шаблон:Post-nominals (born 18 May 1921)[1] is a British pathologist and academic. He is one of the discoverers of the Epstein–Barr virus, along with Yvonne Barr and Bert Achong.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]

Early and personal life

Epstein was born on 18 May 1921,[10][11] and educated at St Paul's School in London,[12] Trinity College, Cambridge, and Middlesex Hospital Medical School.

In 2006, Epstein was awarded a D.Sc. from Bristol. Epstein turned 100 in May 2021.[13][14] He is a Patron of Humanists UK.[10]

Career

Epstein was Professor of Pathology, 1968–1985 (now professor emeritus), head of department, 1968–1982[15] at the University of Bristol.[16] In 1979 he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of London and was its vice-president[1] from 1986 to 1991. He was awarded its Royal Medal in 1992.[17] Epstein was awarded the CBE in 1985,[18] and knighted in 1991.[1] He was a fellow of Wolfson College, Oxford, from 1986 until 2001, and has been an honorary fellow since 2001. Epstein was also a founding Fellow of the Academy of Medical Sciences in 1998.[19]

Burkitt lymphoma studies

Epstein was the first person to propose that Burkitt's lymphoma was a cancer caused by a virus. Upon hearing a lecture given by Denis Parsons Burkitt in 1961 about this newly described cancer, Epstein changed his research focus from cancer causing viruses in chickens to searching for a viral origin of Burkitt's lymphoma.[20] After more than two years of working with tumour cells from Burkitt's patients and subsequently working to isolate a virus from them, the Epstein–Barr virus was finally discovered in February 1964.[21]
