In Memoriam

“Roger had the uncanny ability to look at a problem with the innocence of a child, and be totally unbound by convention, preconceived ideas, or the concept of impossibility. He would reduce complexity into simple logic, and turn the impossible into the possible.
 
Roger’s brilliance helped transform many fields in biology, and created entirely new ways to probe and monitor the function of small molecules, proteins, cells and circuits in vitro and in vivo. He changed the way we could do science. A new generation of scientists can peek into the inner working of cells because of Roger Tsien.”
