experimental success. Although I interacted with Art Popper less frequently, I always looked forward to our interactions at the MBL or scientifi c meetings. Art was also quite supportive of my
career and always took the time to ask about my current research.
I cannot think of another scientifi c pair that so defi ned a fi eld and yet were so generous with their
time and support for students and colleagues. Thank you Dick and Art for your support, generosity
and “sound” advice
