Dear Jacek,
The news about Martin Gorovsky passing away is really saddening. I met
him long time ago during my first post-doc,s in Iowa University and
Wesleyan University in 1968. I always have admired his discoveries on
tetrahymena nuclear apparatus.
I remember his lectures on many inetrnational conpherences; the whole
ciliate community will be missing important ciliate molecular
biologist.
With sorrow
