Abstract

Don Whitley Scientific Limited announced the sad news of the death of its founder and chairman, Don Whitley on February 28, 2019. We mourn the loss of this great scientific entrepreneur who was born in London in June 1929. With his family’s relocation to Leeds in 1940, Don attended Leeds’s prestigious Morley Grammar School where he envisioned a career as a medical doctor. Family’s opposition led him to medical technology, working for a decade at Leeds Maternity Hospital and Killingbeck Hospital before moving to industry.
