A Fond Salute to George Stamatoyannopoulos – Scholar Leader Mentor Colleague Friend

George Stam, as the world came to know him, slipped away from us on June 16 of this year. This marked over half a century of major achievements that revolutionized our understanding of the science of genetics and hematology. His unique and persistent, typically impatient, approach to make progress was surpassed by none. He will also be remembered for his lifelong leadership and commitment to the pursuit of truth, to the creation of a deeper understanding of how blood cells are normally generated, and the development of better treatments for diseases that arise when this process goes awry.
