Michael Joseph Purcaro A Waterbury native, Mr. Purcaro, graduated from Croft High School in 1961 before going on to the University of Connecticut as a pre-med student. While studying at the University, he became interested in the diagnosis and spread of bacterial and viral diseases in man and decided to pursue a career in this area of medicine. During his senior year, he was selected as one of two members of his class to do independent re- search work on bacterial diseases in insects under a grant from the State of Connecti- cut. In addition to his academic achievements, Mr. Purcaro graduated as a second lieutenant and a distinguished military student of the Army ROTC Program at University of Connecticut in 1965. Upon graduation, Mr. Purcaro continued his education at Central Connecticut State College Graduate School until 1967 and at the U.S. Army Medical Service Corp School, San Antonio, Texas. In 1968, he was chosen by the Army to head a viral research pro- ject to find a rapid and reliable method to detect viral infections in children.
