Title :

TRIBUTE – Professor Jean-Louis Amiet

 14 June1936 – 6 June 2023†

Abstract :

I met Jean-Louis at the University of Yaoundé (Cameroon), where I arrived in 1979 to teach chemistry. He was responsible for the Zoology department, a discipline which my son François, although barely eight years old, was already passionate about. The two large aquariums which stood in Jean-Louis' vast office at the Faculty of Sciences and where Aphyosemions were evolving, naturally attracted him. The professor not only knew how to explain, but also how to tell a story, and François was a great listener. These were François' first steps in ichthyology, which he still practises today. This is his story.
