Aycock, W. Lloyd.

William Lloyd Aycock (1889-1951) was an epidemiologist and Associate Professor in the Department of Preventive Medicine and Hygiene at Harvard Medical School and Harvard School of Public Health whose research focused on polio and leprosy. Aycock also directed research for the Harvard Infatile Paralysis Commission. His research encompassed epidemiology and his focus on subclinical aspects of polio led to his thesis that polio was much more widespread than initially assumed, and that its paralytic form was the extreme, even atypical, manifestation of the disease.
