Papillomavirus was
first identified in the 20th century, when it was shown that papilloma, can be
transmitted between individuals by infectious agents. In 1935, Francis Peyton
Rous, who had previously demonstrated the presence of a cancer-causing sarcoma
virus in chickens, showed that papilomaviruses can cause skin cancer in
infected rabbits. This is the first demonstration that viruses can cause cancer
in mammals.
