Steve Coy writes,

”Greg Cochran, PhD, Solid State Physics, expert in Adaptive Optics, best known for his collaboration with Dr. Paul Ewald, using statistical analysis to make the case that many diseases long thought to be hereditary may in fact be caused by infectious agents.  Greg has one of the most fertile minds I've ever encountered, and possibly the best memory.  Greg once observed that in addition to intelligence there is another quality that some very bright people have and others lack, which might be described as 'propensity to come up with something really interesting' . Greg has plenty of it.”
