Dear Jeff,<BR>
<BR>
Bob was an excellent mentor and scientist. He had mentored my colleagues in Ethiopia. I had a few times the opportunity to talk to him. We recently tried to get him over to north Ethiopia for a few days as a consultant to our study on transmission dynamics of visceral leishmaniasis. Unfortunately he was not able to make it. <BR>
<BR>
May his soul rest in peace!!!<BR>

Leishmaniasis has lost one of its icons and the breadth and depth of Bob´s comments on-line and at meetings based on years of experience is a terrible loss to us all. Bob´s career spanned many areas of parasitology. He worked on trypanosomiasis in Nigeria with David Godfrey and on returning to England dedicated many years to malaria, in particular rodent malaria. He travelled extensively on field projects all over the world and together with Prof Rioux was seminal in understanding the ecology of leishmaniasis in the Southern France where lived.</SPAN></SPAN></P>
