Mr. Temin, a University of Wisconsin-Madison professor who specialized in cancer and AIDS research, made a brief public announcement in 1992 to discuss his illness and to note that he had never been a cigarette smoker.

He won the Nobel Prize for physiology in 1975 when he was honored with two other scientists for their research into possible links between viruses and cancer. He received the National Medal of Science in 1992.

In the years after winning the Nobel Prize, he launched a campaign for state laws to bar or limit smoking in public places and frequently spoke on the subject.
