I met Sayan 11 years ago when I first came to Duke, at a seedy beer bar in Durham called „Sam’s Quik Shop“, which no longer exists. I had no idea who he was other than a sweet, very smart, very funny and incredibly human person. I could tell he was a special person however because he was always challenging my preconceptions with his typical good humor. For someone of his intellect and accomplishments it is extraordinarily unusual to retain such a humble, regular-person veneer, which I knew was genuine. He talked often, and with a huge smile of his wife and their (at the time) newly born child.I lost touch with Sayan after a few years, but I was incredibly saddened to hear the news of his passing at such a young age. He has made a huge difference in the scientific world, but he also touched the lives of many, like me, for the better.
