The life of the brilliant Greek-born inventor, entrepreneur and professor George Hatsopoulos was commemorated recently at an event held at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he had served as a beloved teacher and mentor to generations of students.
Hatsopoulos, who was born Jan 7, 1927 in Athens, passed away on September 20, 2018 after a lifetime of solving problems that had stumped other researchers for decades and in the meantime solving some problems that no one had most likely ever even thought of before.
