Samuel Taylor Darling was born on April 6, 1872 in Harrison, New Jersey, United States. He was the son of Edmund Adams Darling by his wife, Sarah Ann Patterson.
Darling attended public schools and later became a druggist.
His interest was thus aroused in medicine, the study of which he began rather late in life at the College of Physicians and Surgeons in Baltimore.
He received the Doctor of Medicine degree from that institution in 1903 and served there during the next two years as instructor in histology and pathology, being at the same time pathologist to the Baltimore City Hospital.
In 1906 Darling joined the Isthmian Canal Commission under General W. C. Gorgas, and held the post of chief of laboratories at the Panama Canal Zone until 1915.
During 1913-14, however, he went in company with Gorgas to investigate the sanitary conditions of the Rand Mines in Rhodesia.
He received appointment in 1915 to the staff of the International Health Board, and during the next three years carried out investigations on the cause of anemia common among the people of Fiji, Java, and Malaya.
Having completed this work, he accepted in 1918 the post of professor of hygiene and director of laboratories of hygiene at the medical school of Sao Paulo, Brazil.
He returned to the School of Public Health at Baltimore in 1921, and in the following year became director of the field laboratory for research in malaria under the International Health Board of the Rockefeller Foundation.
He went accordingly to Leesburg, Georgia, where the chief laboratory was located, and continued to work there until his death.
During his stay in the Canal Zone he identified the organism, trypanosoma hippicum (Darling), which was responsible for a fatal epidemic among mules and work horses, discovered its mode of transmission, and checked the epidemic which threatened to delay operations.
While at Leesburg he made valuable additions to the knowledge of malaria, his emphasis upon the diagnostic value of splenic enlargement in early and in chronic cases being of particular value since it often disclosed unsuspected carriers.
His last published work was an article entitled “Comparative Helminthology as an Aid in the Solution of Ethnological Problems”.
In March 1925, he left America to join the Malaria Commission of the Health Section of the League of Nations, of which he had recently been appointed corresponding member, to assist in a survey of the malaria conditions of Syria, Palestine, and Sicily. On May 20, he and another member of the commission were killed near Beirut, Syria, in a motor accident.
