Alexander Fleming was born in 1881 in Scotland. He went to a small school in

a village, and when he left school he didn’t go to university. He worked for five years

in an office. But his brother, Tom, was a doctor and helped Fleming to go to

university and study medicine. So he went to London University and in 1906 he

became a doctor. In 1915, Fleming married Sarah McElroy, an Irish woman. They

had one son. During the First World War, many soldiers died in hospital because they

didn’t have the right medicines. So after the war, Fleming tried to find a drug that

could help them. He worked for many years and in 1928 he discovered a new drug

and he called it “penicillin”. He later worked with an Australian and a German

scientist to develop a drug that doctors could use. In 1945, they won the Nobel Prize

in medicine for their work on penicillin.
