Patrick was an exceptional professor and person. He was my professor of Development Economics in the Master in 2013-2014. His lectures were above all the standards in terms of the structure, his guide, care of each detail, material provided and quality. He was inspiring, with a spirit that showed in each of his lectures and words that you could indistinctly sense he cared about his students. All his students knew they were important for him, because he just wanted to make sure everybody understood the material and instructions with special dedication. He wanted to transmit not just the knowledge, he wanted to transmit the passion he felt for his field. That is why without being required, he would give general tips on how to do research, who were the main authors, what they were working on. Patrick was an uncommon person, with great qualities and he will be much missed.
