Walter Reed, (1851 – 1902) va ser un metge de la U.S. Army que l'any 1901 va dirigir l'equip que postulà i confirmà la teoria que la febre groga es transmet per una articular espècie de mosquit, més que no pas per contacte directe. Això va donar un gran impls a l'epidemiologia i la biomedicina, i immediatament va permetre acabar el Canal de Panamà (1904–1914) per part dels Estats Units.
