Mark will always be remembered as a passionate and committed neuroscientist. His sense of humor is legendary and despite being passionate about his science, he never took himself (or others) too seriously. He helped to advance the field of neurodegenerative disorders, and he’ll be greatly missed.
Thank you, Frank.
