Honoring John L. Hall
JILA
Submitted by Olivier Pfister University of Virginia
When I joined John L. Hall’s group at JILA, Jan gave me a list of projects he was pursuing and let me freely roam in his Ali Baba toy cavern to try things from basic to cutting-edge. We had many exciting scientific discussions not aways related to immediate research issues, though they always started that way. Jan’s academic mind is both intellectually curious and laser focused. It was an inspiration. I am honored and grateful to have worked 3 years with Jan. It defined the scientist I became.
