Gustavo Hoecker Salas, Chilean biologist (Rere, Biobío Province, VIII Region, December 05 December 1915 – 19 March 2008)
Authored over 100 scientific papers
Defined that H2 complex in chromosome 17 of mice was a genetic complex independent of Snell
Postulated that isoantigens participate in the mechanism of recognition of foreigness
Described a new tumor
