Roger W. Hendrix was at the forefront of bacteriophage biology for nearly 50 years and was central to our understanding of both viral capsid assembly and phage genomic diversity and evolution. Roger's warm and gentle demeanor belied a razor-sharp mind and warmed him to numerous highly productive collaborations that amplified his scientific impact. Roger was always completely open with scientific ideas while at the same time quietly agitating with a stream of new ways of thinking about problems and nudging our communities to search for innovative solutions: a gentle but highly effective provocateur.
罗杰·W·亨德里克斯(Roger W. Hendrix)在噬菌体生物学领域的前沿工作了近 50 年,对我们理解病毒衣壳组装和噬菌体基因组多样性和进化起到了核心作用。罗杰(Roger)热情而温和的风度掩盖了敏锐的思维,使他与众多高产的合作关系融洽,从而扩大了他的科学影响力。罗杰(Roger)在交流科学思想时总是完全坦诚,同时又以一连串新颖的思维方式来默默搅动问题,并推动我们的社区寻找创新的解决方案:一个温和但非常有效的煽动者。
