Stephen Hawking mentored many bright minds in his time at @Cambridge_Uni, including @mcgillu's Robert Brandenberger. The McGill physics professor was a post-doc in Hawking's group at Cambridge from 1985 to 1987.
"He wanted to live the life he wanted to live despite his physical limitations," says Brandenberger.
"He had a great sense of humour, he liked people... He appreciated everyone for who they were." — Robert Brandenberger, physics professor and Canada Research Chair at @mcgillu. Brandenberger was a post-doc under Stephen Hawking at @Cambridge_Uni
#StephenHawking leaves behind a vast legacy, including Hawking radiation, which Brandenberger says "is going to be with us for all time."
