Mourning & Honoring Don Fawcett

Don Wayne Fawcett, 1917-2009

ASCB’s first president and founder, Don Wayne Fawcett, has died. He was 92. With more than 200 papers on cell and organelle ultrastructure, and authorship of The Cell—an atlas of fine structure, Fawcett’s legacy is huge. In his memory, Fawcett’s family suggests contributions to the ASCB Half-Century Fund to create a Don Fawcett memorial travel award. For more about Fawcett’s work, visit the ASCB Image & Video Library or read the full obituary.
