Google Doodle Honors Science's First Microbiologist

There is nothing like being greeted by a Google Doodle first thing in the morning, especially when that Google Doodle reflects the tech giant’s soft spot for all things scientific. Past Doodles have sent the curious scurrying to Wikipedia to check out the 100th anniversary of mathematician Alan Turing’s birth (extra points for irony, Google, for making the code for that one open-sourced), or to learn more about the detection of water on Mars, a moment marked by Google in 2015.
