In recognition of a hard clinical scientist.

摘要

Those who knew Tom Hixon probably remember him as a preeminent scientist, a hard scientist, someone who was rigorous, methodical, and uncompromising. And he was. But he was also so much more. He was a scientist who saw the big picture, who understood what was truly important and what was an insignificant detail. Tom's big picture was focused on his clients. Not many people think of Tom as a clinician, but he was. He was a clinician first, and it was the clinician in him that drove his career as a scientist. Tom did science to help his clients.
