Dr. Adi Ronen, a friend and a colleague passed away on July 30, 2014. He was only 42 years old. Adi was a Human Physiologist and specialized in Human performance and Human Factors. He focused on studying various aspects of work under physiological limitations; looking at how physiological, performance and subjective feeling changes occur while performing tasks, and how technology or various substances (e.g., THC, alcohol) play a role in those changes. Adi was one of the initiators of the BGU IRB committee and a devoted member. Ensuring ethics in research was one of his passions. Adi was also a gifted lecturer continuously receiving the Teaching excellence award in the Faculty of Engineering Sciences. Adi left behind a wife and three children. He will be missed.
