Dr. John D. Termine

I was so sorry to hear about the death of John. My sincere condolences to his family whom he talked about all the time. I worked with John for many years while he was at NIDR. He was a great colleague, mentor and friend. Although I was not directly under his supervision, he always had time for me and was so helpful. We were so sad to see him leave to go to Eli Lilly.
