Chris Cummings was a kind and generous colleague as well as a dear friend to so many of us. We are deeply saddened to have lost him at such a young age, but will always remember his warmth, wit, and compassion. His contributions to science will live on to the benefit of all.
For those who wish to honor the memory of Chris, his family has requested that donations be made to the Jan and Dan Duncan Neurological Research Institute (NRI) at Texas Children's Hospital. A memorial fund will be established to support an annual award given to an outstanding graduate student at the NRI. The award will be named the Christopher J. Cummings, Ph.D., NRI Graduate Student Award.
