Jean Luc Montagnier

Jean Luc Montagnier (born 1932) is a virologist who is sometimes credited with being the first person to isolate the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). His research was done at the Pasteur Institute in Paris.

The identity of the first person to isolate HIV (which develops into the AIDS virus) is currently disputed among Dr. Montagnier and American Robert Gallo.
