>Dear friends and colleagues: > >It's now been over a week since Warren has passed away. We are trying to >move toward a permanent way to honor Warren's memory and what >he stood for: Open Source Computational Biosciences and molecular >visualization. To do this, Jim Wells and I put together a mission statement >with the approval of Warren's family: > >>The Warren L. DeLano Memorial Award for Computational Biosciences >> >>This award shall be given to a top computational bioscientist in >>recognition of the >>contributions made by Warren L. DeLano to creating powerful >>visualization tools >>for three dimensional structures and making them freely accessible. >>The award, >>accompanying lecture, and honorium will be given annually in the context of a >>national bioscience meeting or a Bay Area gathering of >>computational bioscientists >>at Stanford, UCSF or UC Berkeley. For the award special emphasis >>will be given >>for Open Source developments and service to the bioscience community. >> >>The award selection committee, consisting of experts in the computational and >>biological sciences, will accept nominations from anyone.. > >To make something like this happen in perpetuity would take about ~100K for >the endowment. > >For donations, Warren's family has set up a tax deductible fund: > >Silicon Valley Community Foundation >memo: Warren L.
