Alexander Fleming
1955: Sir Alexander Fleming (1881 - 1955), discoverer of penicillin, studies mould cultures in his laboratory at the Wright Fleming Institute in London. Fleming also developed a technique of 'painting' pictures with germs, drawing outlines on small pieces of paper, which would grow into a picture as the microbes multiplied.
