Microbiologist Peter Piot was just 27 years old when the lab where he was working received a blood sample infected with a then-unknown disease. That virus is now known as Ebola and Peter was part of the team that helped discover it. I’ve spent a lot of time with Peter over the years, and I never get tired of hearing him talk about the case that made him famous.
