Edward Jenner (May 17, 1749 – January 26, 1823) was an English physician and scientist who was the pioneer of smallpox vaccine, the world's first vaccine. Variolation or inoculation was the method first used to immunize an individual against smallpox (Variola). Jenner noted the well-known notion milkmaids were generally immune to smallpox. His [[insight]] was that pus in the blisters that milkmaids received from cowpox protected them from smallpox. On May 14, 1796, Jenner tested his hypothesis by inoculating James Phipps, an eight-year-old boy who was the son of Jenner's gardener.<ref>Stefan Riedel, MD (January 2005).
