Martin Lewis Perl (1927–2014) was an American physicist who discovered the tau lepton, for which he received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1995. Despite the prompt's mention of biology, Perl's work was entirely in particle physics, and he was known for his experimental ingenuity and persistence in the face of skepticism.
