This is terrible news. I met Steve a number of years ago at Emory,
and he was extremely nice. While I was giving platelets away in the
lab. across the hall from his, he kept me company. Later, he gave me
a tour of his lab, and we had a great conversation about flow
cytometry and life in general. I do hope that he can be treated and
cured soon. Our prayers are with him.

To the readers of the flow mailing list:
I believe I am the bearer of sad news. My mentor and good friend,
Steve
Micko, has been diagnosed with glioblastoma and will undergo
treatment
very soon. We ask that your thoughts and prayers go out to Steve and
his family. I have had the distinct pleasure to benefit from Steve's
immense knowledge base in flow cytometry, and under his tutelage have
learned a great deal about the delicate art of sorting. His presence
is
missed here at the hospital, and we wish him a speedy recovery.
