It is with great sadness that we announce the death of our colleague and long-time friend of the Center, Abner Shimony. A remembrance webpage with an obituary, written by Center Director, Alisa Bokulich, and Don Howard (Notre Dame Professor and former student of Abner’s) can be found here, along with additional photos and remembrances from the community.

You can watch a video of Abner’s final lecture in the Boston Colloquium, titled “Reminiscences”, given on the occasion of the 50th anniversary celebration of the Center here: colloquium 2010–2011

Abner’s profound mind and gentle spirit will be greatly missed.
