I cannot provide an accurate 2-sentence overview based solely on "American biologist" as the context. This descriptor applies to many people, and I would need additional information to identify which Andrew Fire you're referring to and what specifically makes them notable. To write accurately without invention, I would need more context about their work or achievements.
