Biography and Work

De Harven obtained his medical degree from the University of Brussels.[1] He later worked at the Institute of Cancer of Villejuif under Charles Oberling and Wilhelm Bernhard, where he made pioneering observations of the structure of centrioles.[5]

He was subsequently hired by

University of Cornell and later of pathology at the University of Toronto, where he researched the marking of antigens on the surface of lymphocytes.[12][13]

As former President of the Microscopy Society of America, he published several papers, mostly related to Cancer Pathologies and

electron microscopy procedures for viral explorations.[14]

De Harven was a prominent skeptic of the scientific validity of the link between HIV and AIDS,

AIDS, instead attributing the disease to lifestyle and environmental factors.[18]
