Sorry to hear, he helped me a very long time ago during my PhD time when I was running into troubles with some of his programs.
The York CCzp4 weekends were fun indeed, finishing off some wines tgat Paul Adam’s had stored away.

Alexey was one of my favourites when I was in York, and I have had many lovely conversations with him. You are right, Eugene, his contributions have helped and will keep helping many crystallographers and methods developers. May his soul rest in peace!

He was 78 years old. Alexey made many developments in methods and software for macromolecular crystallography, to which he devoted his whole life. He is known for his BLANC Suite for structure solution done at the Moscow Institute of Crystallography in the 1980s, as well as for his contributions to Refmac and Monomer Library. Many thousands of researchers have benefited from his work on Molrep and Balbes software for Molecular Replacement. After his retirement in 2010, Alexey developed and actively maintained the MorDA software for MR, which became a monument to his efforts. Alexey's work will continue to serve generations of researchers through his contributions to CCP4, where we will take the best care of his distinguished legacy. With sympathy to everyone who knew Alexey personally and for whom this is very sad news, Eugene ------------------------------ To unsubscribe from the CCP4BB list, click the following link: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/WA-JISC.exe?SUBED1=CCP4BB&A=1 ------------------------------ To unsubscribe from the CCP4BB list, click the following link: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/WA-JISC.exe?SUBED1=CCP4BB&A=1 ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the CCP4BB list, click the following link: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/WA-JISC.exe?SUBED1=CCP4BB&A=1 This message was issued to members of www.jiscmail.ac.uk/CCP4BB, a mailing list hosted by www.jiscmail.ac.uk, terms & conditions are available at https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/policyandsecurity/
