Malcolm was one of my supervisors for the PhD at ISER, and I was very happy to be able to keep collaborating with him afterwards. As can be seen from all the lovely tributes he was a very kind and helpful man. This would also mean he was busy and meetings could get lost in the calendar – I remember having stressed for a meeting for a week or so to then bump into Malcolm who had forgotten about it utterly – but very characteristically we could then just sit down and discuss. I could always just walk in with questions or ideas, or for tea and cake. He combined being thorough and insightful with a very kind way of teaching, always supportive and quite funny. I was very saddened when he told me he was ill and nothing could be done anymore, and I was dreading to read the message of his passing. I am very grateful to have known Malcolm and to have been able to learn much from him. My thoughts go to his family and friends.
