Answer to user Athaenara:

Dr. George Kollias is a distinguished scientist with an H-index over 40. Dr. Kollias is not employed by a company but he is the President and Scientific Director of the non profit Biomedical Sciences Research Center "Al. Fleming". Wikipedia lists many other biologists, and academics and it is unfair to omit Dr. George Kollias

I agree with user with IP 77.49.145.45, George Kollias is a distinguished scientist and should be presented in wikipedia [user kanei22] —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kanei22 (talk • contribs) 13:58, 4 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Dr. George Kollias, is a leading scientist in the field of TNF function in pathophysiology, highly reputed for establishing and characterizing disease pathways in animal models of chronic inflammation and autoimmunity (e.g. Rheumatoid Arthritis, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Multiple Sclerosis, endotoxic shock and systemic lupus).
