Rajeev Motwani Remembered

June 8th, 2009 by Wei Chen

I sadly heard the news that my former adviser, Prof. Rajeev Motwani, at Stanford University passed away on Friday in an accident.

During my graduate study at Stanford, I truly appreciated his willingness to reach out and help to off-campus students like me.

In recent years, Prof. Motwani has become well known among Silicon Valley entrepreneurs due to his early involvement in Google, Paypal, and other start-ups in the valley.

It is a huge loss to Computer Science at Stanford, and the industry as a whole.

My sincere condolence to his family.
