Stanley Miller
Stanley Lloyd Miller (March 7, 1930 - May 20, 2007) was an American chemist and biologist who is known for his studies into the origin of life, particularly the Miller experiment which demonstrated that organic compounds can be created by fairly simple chemical processes from inorganic substances. However, it has since been demonstrated that the conditions used for the experiment may not have been an accurate representation of the early Earth atmosphere.
