In memory of Harry

A portrait picture of Professor Harry P. Andreassen, where he is smiling.Professor Harry P. Andreassen (INN) is the founder and initiator of IRSAE. With his passion for research and teaching, Harry initiated, organized and hosted several IRSAE activities, including two summer schools, before IRSAE received any official external funding. As the only international “National research school”, Harry both applied and received funding from the Norwegian Research Council to launch IRSAE as an official international research school with 15 European partners. Harry wanted to create an including network for young scientists, to give them support and motivation to produce excellent science, and provide a network that would persist beyond their PhD education. Harry passed away in May 2019, and the 2019-IRSAE-summer school in Iceland was dedicated to Harry’s commitment to research, and his joy of teaching and mentoring. Harry always made everyone feel special and important, and we will do our utmost to carry on Harry’s philosophy and legacy. Harry’s devotion to mentoring and inspiring young researchers is the true spirit of IRSAE.
