Murray Sanders

Murray Jonathan Sanders (April 11, 1910 – June 29, 1987) was an American physician and military officer who was involved with the U.S. Army's biological warfare program during World War II. He was heavily involved in the American cover-up of Japanese war crimes, having been the U.S. officer who convinced General Douglas MacArthur to grant legal immunity to members of the infamous Japanese Unit 731 chemical warfare research unit, despite the unit's practice of unethical human experimentation.

Sanders was nominated for a Nobel Prize in Medicine in 1966 for his efforts in devising a potential treatment for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). He was also the first to identify adenoviral keratoconjunctivitis, a viral infection of the eye. Provided by Wikipedia
