Obituary: Dimitrios Trichopoulos (1938–2014)
In a period where the economic crisis and austerity dominates our lives, we need teachers and mentors.
It is with deep sadness that the public health community informed me of the passing of Dimitrios Trichopoulos, Professor and Director at the Department of Hygiene and Epidemiology at the Harvard School of Public Health since 1989 (Figure 1), Professor of Cancer Prevention and the Director of the Center Cancer Prevention at Harvard University since 1992 and member of the Supreme Academy of Arts and Sciences in Athens.
