Richard Edwin Shope (December 25, 1901–October 2, 1966) was an American virologist who at the Rockefeller Institute identified influenzavirus A in pigs in 1931.[1] Using Shope's technique, Smith, Andrewes, and Laidlaw of England's Medical Research Council cultured it from a human in 1933.[1] They and Shope in 1935 and 1936, respectively, identified it as the virus circulating in the 1918 pandemic.[1] In 1933, Shope identified the Shope papillomavirus, which infects rabbits.[2] He received the 1957 Albert Lasker Clinical Medical Research Award.[3]
His son Robert Shope was also a virologist, who specialised in arthropod-borne viruses.[4]
