ARVO Award


Josh was going to receive an award this May at the annual meeting of the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology. From talking to him, I know that he was not looking forward to giving the obligatory lecture that accompanies accepting the award. He regarded these lectures as invariably self-congratulatory accounts of a series of research triumphs, something his fiercely honest and self-deprecating self found distasteful. Very sadly, the award will now be a posthumous one.
