The Administrator, the Board of Professors and the entire Collège de France community are deeply saddened to learn of the death of François Gros, Honorary Professor at the Collège de France, who held the Chair of Cellular Biochemistry from 1973 to 1996.
They pay tribute to a professor who had a profound influence on the Collège de France through the breadth of his scientific vision, the importance of his work, including the co-discovery of messenger RNA, his humanism, his generosity and his extraordinary commitment.
