Not sure what to say?

I worked for Dr. Erlenmeyer-Kimling on the NYHRP from 1976-1978. She was a warm and caring person. I am very saddened to discover that she has passed.

I was Dr. Kimling's Teaching Assistant for Schizophrenia and the Affective Disorders at the New School in 1978 - 1980. She was an amazing person, so gifted yet so humble, and always treated me a colleague, not a graduate student. I still think of her.

Niki--mentor, colleague, friend,
Thank you for championing schizophrenia research, advocating for women's issues, and protecting vulnerable animals. Fond memories of you, Ann Moscato, Hellie Kallmann and others who made the Medical Genetics Department a special place. And, of course, of Carl who was always there to offer support. Condolences to friends and family. Peace to all. Sue Nicol

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief. Please except my condolences for your loss.
