Like families, professors transmit bits of wisdom to their students, not just by what they say but what they do. Colleagues share methods and data, but more importantly, ideas and visions. Irving I. Gottesman was unique in this respect, both brilliant in his field and wise when it came to teaching, guiding, and supporting. His academic pedigree extends across many generations and will for generations to come.
A fund to honor Irving I. Gottesman has been established with the Federation of Associations in Behavioral & Brain Sciences (FABBS).
