Roger-Pedersen-Obituary-2025

Very sorry to hear of the passing of Roger Pedersen. He was an outstanding developmental and stem cell biologist & helped to establish the Cambridge Stem Cell Institute. Our thoughts are with his family.

Very sorry to hear of the passing of Professor Roger Pedersen, whose visionary leadership helped establish the @scicambridge.bsky.social. I will never forget how Roger personally taught my group how to dissect early post-implantation mouse embryos; watching him at the microscope was truly inspiring
