Juan Rosai
1940-2020
A tribute from Robin Cook, Emeritus Editor of the News Bulletin of the IAP.
I would like to join Prof. Jane Dahlstrom on behalf of the members of all Divisions of the IAP to mourn the death of Prof. Juan Rosai, a colleague and a giant in the field of Pathology. As Editor of the IAP News Bulletin I was able to photograph Juan on many occasions.
I have chosen images from the News Bulletins from 2002 to 2014.
Our last meeting was at the Annual meeting of the Spanish Division of the IAP held in Zaragoza, for which he was the Honorary Co-Chair of the meeting. He and his wife and I walked from our Hotel to the Conference venue. We walked slowly because his Parkinson’s Disease was severely impeding his movements at that time.
Farewell dear colleague.

In October, 2013 Juan Rosai, assisted by his colleagues, Jeronimo Forteza and Robert Young, organised the third of his walking/bus riding tours that combined Pathology lectures given by distinguished pathologists with exposure to the culture, history and scenery of an important destination bordering the Mediterranean Sea. This photo ws taken during a Pathology tour that was combined with a walk that explored the Island of Sicily. 150 people from 21 countries joined the tour, which proved to be intellectually stimulating and thoroughly enjoyable.
