1Saad Al-Damluji (1952-2006) was an Honorary Consultant endocrinologist at the Royal Free Hospital in London, and Senior Lecturer at the Royal Free & University College Medical School from 1995.

Saad had an incisive intellect and extraordinary work ethos and level of commitment. He set the highest standards, and expected the same of others. He is missed as a colleague and teacher; more than 70 students attended his funeral. His patients adored him, and his untimely death deprived the Medical School of one of its most devoted and talented teachers.

2David Jordan (1953-2007) was Professor of Physiology at UCL. In 1980, he joined the Department of Physiology at the Royal Free Hospital School of Medicine as a lecturer and was promoted to senior lecturer in 1988, and reader in 1993. Following his promotion to Professor in 1999, and the merger with UCL, David was made Head of Department on the Royal Free Campus.

Notwithstanding his significant contribution to the body of scientific knowledge via his research, David’s input to teaching and examining was considerable. He ran a number of courses in both the science and medical degree programmes, and served as an undergraduate and higher degree external examiner both within the UK and overseas.
