Dr. Michael Patrick Kiley

Dr. Michael Patrick Kiley, age 62, died January 24, 2004. Kiley died of massive heart attack. He was an expert in Ebola, Mad Cow Expert and top of the line world class. It is interesting to note, he had a good heart, but it “gave out”. Dr. Shope and Dr. Kiley were working on the lab upgrade to BSL 4 at the UTMB Galveston lab for Homeland Security. The lab would have to be secure to house some of the deadliest pathogens of tropical and emerging infectious disease as well as bio-weaponized ones.
