It is with much sadness we have learnt that our dear friend and former Governing Board Chair Stuart Ward has passed away after a long period of illness. Stuart was a man with remarkable professional and human qualities – an example and guidance at both the personal and professional level. He cared about ITER and F4E. He cared about people. He was a man of rectitude, love, and intelligence. We will miss him dearly.
Chair of the Governing Board (GB) during 2011-2015, Stuart Ward was previously the GB representative for the United Kingdom since F4E was created in 2007. His background in physics and experience as Director of Corporate Services at the UK’s Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, was well suited to the mission of F4E. He had an impressive ability to steer the discussions in the GB towards a consensus and constructive conclusion and was highly respected for his bright and effective style. His calm and collected nature was much appreciated by F4E staff and European colleagues alike.
