In memory of Joe Spencer
Article

It is with deep regret that we announce the death of Dr Jonathan (Joe) Spencer, age 47. He was killed in a car accident near Cambridge on 6 April.
Joe was a Reader in Biological Chemistry at the University of Cambridge. Amongst other notable achievements, he was awarded the Âé¶¹AV Bader Prize in 2007 for his breakthroughs in the biosynthesis of clinically important natural products. Joe was involved in several Âé¶¹AV activities and was a regular attendee and supporter of the Bio-organic Group meetings. He will be missed by all who knew him and his death is a great loss to the chemistry community.
