A researcher and lecturer at the prestigious Raccoon University, Peter Jenkins was a friend of George Hamilton, and also assisted in the creation of Daylight, which could almost instantly destroy traces of the tyrant virus.

Peter met Greg Mueller earlier in 1998. Greg informed him of the "tyrant virus", a highly-mutagenic Zoonotic virus being developed by the international pharmaceutical enterprise, Umbrella Chemical Inc.. It wasn't until the virus was already within Raccoon City, having originated from multiple sources such as the infested Arklay Mountains, that the antidote was discovered.

Peter started to become suspicious of Greg's knowledge of the t-virus, and was scared for his very life after realising that he and Greg were the only two to know of the Daylight research. Hiding important notes throughout the University, Peter planned of having his friend George retrieve them and create the antidote himself, in the event that Peter died.

He was eventually murdered by Greg, being shot in the back in his private study. He was found by survivors of the viral outbreak early on October 1st, and his scattered notes provided enough knowledge to create the antidote themselves.
