  Tom C. J. Feijtel (1959–2005)
  Feijtel was a scientist at home on both sides of the Atlantic.
  When he lost his life in a bicycle accident at age 46 last month, Tom C. J. Feijtel was an accomplished scientist and a well-rounded individual. He continually crisscrossed the Atlantic during both his academic and corporate careers, and his friendsand colleagues recall that he was as much at home in the laboratory as he was in a lecture hall, a business meeting, or outdoors exercising to raise money for a good cause.

  Colleagues attest to Feijtel’s keen intellect and extraordinary ability to communicate.“Tom possessed the rare quality of having a good intellect with the ability to communicate with great effect,” says Luca Virginio, who was Feijtel’s immediate supervisor at Procter & Gamble’s (P&G) External Relations division for Western Europe. Since 2003, Feijtel served as associate director of the division, which is in Strombeek-Bever (Belgium).
  Feijtel’s academic career included stints at two Belgian universities: the Free University of Brussels, where he earned a biology degree, and Ghent University, where he took a degree in environmental engineering. He went on to complete his Ph.D. in marine sciences and biogeochemistry in the U.S. at Louisiana State University. He also served as an associate professor at the Agricultural University of Wageningen in The Netherlands, his native country. There, he taught chemical engineering and environmental modeling and managed the university’s wet-soil chemistry and mineralogical laboratory. Over his lifetime, he published 80 scientific articles.
  After Feijtel joined P&G in 1989, his career continued to take him back and forth between Belgium and the U.S. He began his experience as a scientist involved with assessing the risks of the chemicals in P&G detergents, but soon moved up to management. In that role he was “a dedicated P&G manager who was in touch with the people around him, both within and outside the company,” said Erik Jonnaert, the general manager of the company’s External Relations division for Western Europe.
  At the time of his death, Feijtel had served for only one year on ES&T’s Editorial Advisory Board, but “his presence was strongly felt in that short time,” says Jerald Schnoor, ES&T’s editor. Feijtel had been involved in working out the toxicity testing requirements associated with the EU’s REACH (Registration, Evaluation and Authorisation of Chemicals) legislation, and he “had the inordinate ability to bring together [nongovernmental organizations], advocacy groups, academia, industry, and government alike,” Schnoor says. “His honesty, good humor, and steadfastness was always in evidence,” he adds.
  Feijtel was also active in scientific and policy organizations, including the European Centre for Ecotoxicology and Toxicology of Chemicals, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, the European Chemical Industry Council, and the Environmental Risk Assessment and Management research partnership of the European detergent and surfactant producers.
  Feijtel had “enormous amounts of energy and drive,” Virginio recalls. He was “known for being a good athlete” and “consistently involved with raising money for a variety of good causes, especially if it involved swimming or running,” he says. “He cared deeply for people . . . and we loved him.” —KELLYN S.
