Ethan T. Johnson

9-22-1972 to 9-21-2010

Ethan, our dear friend, colleague and teacher, died on September 21st 2010 due to injuries suffered in a hit-and-run car accident. We are shocked and devastated by our loss. Ethan joined the Schmidt-Dannert lab in 2005, and was the go-to guy for all our questions, scientific and otherwise. He nurtured the talents of us all, and made us better scientists.

Ethan was not only a fantastic scientist and a patient teacher, he was also an excellent trumpet player, a skilled puppeteer, and a master skier. He biked to work everyday, even in the harsh Minnesota winters. Ethan crammed a lot of living into a tragically short life. While we mourn the loss of our friend and advisor, his amazingly productive and happy life is an example to us all. He is missed.

A web-site has been built to honor and remember our friend: [http://ethantjohnson.com ethantjohnson.com]
