<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''William Prusoff''' (1920-2011) was a renowned [[pharmacologist]] and [[virologist]] known for his significant contributions to the field of [[antiviral therapy]]. He is best known for the development of the antiviral drug [[Idoxuridine]], the first antiviral medication approved by the [[Food and Drug Administration|FDA]].<br />
<br />
== Early Life and Education ==<br />
Prusoff was born in 1920 in [[New York City]]. He completed his undergraduate studies at the [[City College of New York]] in 1941, majoring in [[Chemistry]]. He then pursued his Ph.D. in [[Biochemistry]] from [[Yale University]], which he completed in 1948.<br />
<br />
== Career ==<br />
After completing his Ph.D., Prusoff joined the faculty at Yale University as a [[research scientist]]. His research primarily focused on the development of antiviral drugs. In 1959, he developed Idoxuridine, an antiviral medication used to treat [[Herpes simplex virus|herpes simplex keratitis]]. This was the first antiviral drug to be approved by the FDA.<br />
