Yesterday 250+ of Felix Feng's friends and family gathered to say goodbye. There was an outpouring of love, grief and as Felix would have wanted it, humor. As Josh Lang said: Tomorrow we stand and get back to the fight against the terrible disease that took one of our best, brightest and kindest.

Mourning the loss of Felix - my "work spouse", and friend, mentor, collaborator, as he was to so,so many.
Felix, you leave us heartbroken, AND immeasurably better people, colleagues, friends, scientists, and clinicians for your time on earth. I will miss you terribly.
