It was with great sadness that we learned of the death of Rob Lue.
Our thoughts are with his family at this very difficult time, to whom we express our friendship and deep, deep sympathy.
Rob Lue embodied a rare combination of qualities: intelligence, modesty, commitment, loyalty, candor, kindness and, above all, commitment to students.
We feel extremely fortunate to have had him by our side, as organizer of the Harvard Science po CRI Biopolis Summer School each year, and as a committed member of our international scientific board. We will always be grateful to him for his years of great generosity, insight and involvement in the development of our institution and its community. We will continue to contribute to his legacy of innovation in science education and mentoring.
He was a great friend right up to his last day, and he will be sorely missed here in Paris, as will all those who had the good fortune to meet him or benefit from his mentorship.
