In Memorian: Alan R Hibbs, PhD.

 

Alan Hibbs

1956-2006

 

 

Alan Hibbs, one of the co-founders of FIG, author of the book "Confocal Microscopy for Biologist" and well known to many in the confocal community, died in May 2006.

 

Alan will be missed in Australia by his many colleagues, but he will be especially well remembered by the Fluorescence Imaging Group. Alan was instrumental in organising many of the imaging workshops and other scientific events in Australia between 1999 and 2006. We have collated anecdotes and condolences from the international confocal microscopy community and also reproduce a eulogy (reproduced by kind permission of Australian Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, www.asbmb.org.au, and printed in the August edition of the Society’s Magazine).
