Stanley Glasser

I am really saddened to hear of the passing of Stan Glasser. I first met him when I he offered me a desk in his lab as I began my PhD studies in JoAnne Richard's lab next door. He was an incredibly generous man with a great personality, a great advisor and mentor to me, and to all the students in his sphere of influence. His wit, humor, and vast knowledge of reproductive physiology were amazing gifts to me that were an inspiration for my own career in reproduction for many years to come. I...

My Dear Doris and family.....Elaine, Kelly and I extend to you our heartfelt condolences. Stanley entered my heart in my early years at Baylor College of Medicine. Know that he lives there as long as I do. He was a dear friend, valued and respected mentor and trusted confidant. He also entered my mind (often) in those wonderful BCM Cell Biology days with his freely shared knowledge, constructive criticism in our science exchanges, sage advice and erudite sense of wry humor. On leaving...

We are deeply saddened to hear of Stan's passing. Stan was a friend from our very early days as postdoctoral fellows at Baylor (1981-1985) and had remained one through subsequent years. We fondly remember Stan for making every day a fun day in the Department with his wit and advice. He always had a good word when passing you in the hall and had the funniest jokes that we can remember. It was a pleasure seeing him at many SSR and Endocrine Society Meetings and Gordon Conferences. He was the...

Stan was a dear friend. I will miss our long phone calls, the hours spent at the SSR meetings chatting about science and the world, and his e-mails every Holliday. He mentored many scientists including myself and I owe him big. The best scientific meeting I ever attended was the one he organized in Bordeaux. It was always a pleasure for my husband and I to have dinner with him and Doris at meetings. We will miss him greatly.

I met Dr. Glasser during a period of my life when I was trying to figure out what to do next, after an unsuccessful attempt at a career in medicine. When I applied to and was accepted to a PhD program at UC Berkeley, he was incredibly supportive of my decision to give it a try. I was amazed that he didnt think that I was a dunce. My confidence had taken a major blow after my departure from medical school, but Dr Glasser
was instrumental in helping me believe in myself again.
I have...

My condolences to Doris and all of the Glasser Family on the death of Stan. He was a great person and an inspiration to many of us for man years. May he rest in peace as we recall all of the fond memories of our time with him. Fuller W. Bazer

Dr. Glasser will be remembered fondly for his intelligence, humor, and mentorship by those of us who interfaced with him as students and then colleagues.
