My colleagues at the CNRS/CEA in Grenoble (Catherine Bougerol, Jean-Louis Hodeau...) have told me the sad news of the passing of Massimo Marezio in Rome on Monday 13th May. Massimo was recruited from Bell labs to lead the Grenoble CNRS crystallography by Académicien Felix Bertaut. He made many important contributions to solid state chemistry and crystallography including powder diffraction, and trained many of today's leading scientists in the US and Europe. I once described him as "the best scientist with whom I had ever worked". His former colleagues plan a commemoration and an account of his exceptional contributions.
