2025 Satellite Meeting - Fifty-Five Molar Stuff in Molecular Interactions: Honoring Adrian Parsegian’s Work

sku Product SKU:  SMEETING-M25_ADRIAN-2025

We plan to organize a full-day satellite meeting at BPS 2025 to honor Adrian Parsegian's crucial contributions to biological physics. Dr. Adrian Parsegian passed away on July 5th, 2023. Adrian was an outstanding scientist and mentor, an outstanding friend, and an outstanding human being. Soon after obtaining his PhD in Biophysics from Harvard University, he joined the NIH, where he spent 42 years. During this tenure, Adrian became a leader in membrane biophysics whose name was known to every biophysicist in the world. For many years he was Editor-in Chief of the Biophysical Journal and the Founding Editor of the Biophysical Discussions. Adrian worked for most of these years in the NICHD, consequently establishing the institute as a capital of membrane and cellular biophysics. To be invited to Adrian’s famous chocolate seminars (where he served copious amounts of chocolate both to the speaker and to the audience) was considered to be a high honor. The seminars and ensuing discussions usually lasted more than two hours, during which few of the audience left. Adrian made sure all members of his and affiliated laboratories felt that they were part of a large social family in addition to being professional colleagues.
