    at age 81 from complications of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS, Aka Lou Gherig's Disease).His work had a great impact on the world.He was an educator, a leader, and an inspiration and role model to an enormous number of people.He was a person of great integrity and compassion.He was driven to do good.He was immensely kind.He dwelled on possibility.He was not constrained by what things were like now, or by what was practical.He dreamed.He dreamed big.But he brought his dreams to fruition.He put ideas into action, and he made them happen.That is just one of the ways Michael cared for other people and other people's welfare.And he truly did care for all people.He made friends with everyone.Everyone.In addition to the vast number of colleagues, he also talked to the janitors, he talked to the maids, he talked to the homeless people.Michael was always innovating, trying to make things better.You could see the gears in his brain going, he would latch onto ideas and run with them.He did not think about what he could do, he thought about what WE could do.What all of us could do.Some scientists do not share their ideas.They have lab meetings with closed doors.Anytime data or ideas are discussed, they close it to their group.But not Michael.He knew that great things were built by collaborations with others.He was such an incredible networker.There was actually a joke among members of his lab that that he could get onto an elevator at the top of a building and by the time he came out at the bottom floor he would have made a new collaboration.It was this aspect of his personality that he built an incredible research team, with collaborators in the offices nearby his, and as far away as India, China, and South Africa.Michael was a pioneer in some of the early studies on Parkinson's disease.He was one of the first scientists to recognize the beneficial effects of exercise in slowing the progression of this disease; studies opened up an entirely new avenue of research that has produced one of the best clinical treatments for slowing Parkinson's disease progression.In his later career, his work focused on work examining the interface of brain health and disease, with a particular focus on the impact of social isolation including that seen in solitary confinement.His research on the long-term effects of solitary confinement has contributed to numerous states' legislatures changing their regulations in regard to this practice.
