In Memory of Professor Michael F. Zimmermann

It is with deep sadness that we share the news of the passing of our colleague and friend, Michael F. Zimmermann, who died on April 9, 2025.

Michael was a founding member of “Practicing Place” and an integral part of our team. He was a wonderful colleague with great enthusiasm for research, always ready to support and engage with multifaceted projects and ideas.

We extend our heartfelt condolences to his family, friends, and loved ones. He will be deeply missed.
