Peter Mazur

I met Dr.Mazur on several occasions. He was a great cryobiologist and person. Always full of energy. My deepest sympathy to the family.

I first met Peter during my graduate studies in life sciences at ORNL, and knew him later as a fellow scientist. However, my primary and most precious interactions with Peter were as good friends for the last 11 years of his life. Peter relished a meal of hot dogs and baked beans as much as he did a good steak at a 4-star establishment. He loved lemonade without sugar! During shared commentaries about our daily lives he'd sometimes go into spasms of giggles. He didn't just tolerate - he...

It is impossible to forget someone who gave us so much.

My condolences and prayers are with the family. Dr. Mazur was an inspiration to cryobiologists. I personally appreciated that he always made an effort to engage and encourage graduate students. He will be greatly missed.

My sympathy and prayer to the Mazur family. Peter was an incredible man and scientist and made amazing and lasting contributions to his field of study. His work will have lasting impact for a very long time. He was one of the greats of this world and yet was humble, quiet, and friendly. He will be missed by many.

I extend my deepest sympathies and prayers to Dr. Mazur's family. Peter was instrumental in helping my research team with vitrification of ovarian tissue, and we are forever grateful for his advice and support. Although we only knew him for a few years, he made a lasting impact on our research and we will always remember him as our wonderful colleague and collaborator. He is already greatly missed, but his legacy lives on.
