Irving Millman (May 23, 1923 – April 17, 2012) was a noted virologist and microbiologist.
He was a member of the U.S. Army's Eighth Armored Division during the Second World War, earning a Bronze Star.
In 1948, Millman earned a bachelor's degree from the City College of New York.
[1] Millman's work with Baruch Blumberg helped lead to the creation of a test to detect hepatitis B.
Later research by the team led to a vaccine that is now commonly given to neonates (newborns).
