Miroslav Holub

Died in 1998

Miroslav Holub was born on 13 September 1923 in Plzeň. A doctor of medicine in 1953, then a doctor of sciences of the Institute of Microbiology of the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences in 1958, he remained an immunologist all his life and published more than a hundred and twenty scientific papers. Close to the young writers of the journal Květen, he travelled widely in English-speaking countries, where he was at least as well known as at home. Banned from publishing after 1970, he remained so despite a public self-criticism in 1973, until 1979, and died in Prague on 14 July 1998.
