In memoriam: Graham Harding
 |
It is with a great sense of sadness and loss that we learned of the passing of Graham Harding who died peacefully on October 20, 2018. He was a researcher not only with great vision, skills and energetic persistence in achieving his goals, but also with an open mind and interest in a wide variety of subjects. We will sadly miss him.
