Obituary for Donald S. Coffey: Remembering a pioneer in the field of prostate cancer research. (1932–2017)

摘要

It is with the deepest sadness that we publish the following obituary for Donald S. Coffey, an Asian Journal of Urology (AJU) respected author. Dr. Coffey was invited to write a paper for the inaugural issue of AJU in 2014. Despite he was 82 years old, he accepted our invitation and contributed a thoughtful perspective article. He worked diligently, and his paper improved the impact of AJU. The obituary published here was first published by Society of Basic Urologic Research (SBUR). A memorial service honoring Dr. Donald S. Coffey was held on November 18th, 2017 at the church of the Holy Comforter in Lutherville, Maryland, USA.
