摘要

Masashi Kawasaki tragically died in a car accident on May 18, 2025. A dedicated neuroethologist and beloved faculty member at the University of Virginia, Charlottesville, he spent over four decades exploring neural mechanisms underlying echolocation in bats and electric behavior in weakly electric fish. He will be remembered for his expertise in carrying out challenging electrophysiological experiments in whole animals where others failed. His success was grounded on his mastery in combining a deep knowledge in neurophysiology with an excellent skill set for designing and building sophisticated experimental apparatus. Through his seminal research contributions and his generosity in sharing his knowledge with others, he left footprints in the minds and hearts of many.
