鈥淲orking with Professor Roulet has provided me with invaluable guidance on professional conduct as a colleague, collaborator, mentor, and teacher,鈥� wrote a former student. 鈥淩eflecting decades later, his mentorship holds the test of time. I can honestly describe my time as part of his research group in the early 2000s as a healthy and inclusive experience, and his example continues to directly inform how I mentor students today.鈥澛�
