Charles W T Pilcher (1939-2004)

On March 9, the Faculty of Medicine, Kuwait University, lost one of its most distinguished Professors who had been a founding member of the Faculty and the Department of Pharmacology & Toxicology.

A graduate of King’s College, University of London, Professor Pilcher joined Kuwait University in 1976. His research focused on the areas of neuropharmacology and smooth muscle pharmacology. He was also actively involved in conservation and in monitoring bird populations in Kuwait.

He will be remembered for his commitment to academic excellence in teaching and research, as well as for his passion for ornithology and Arabic.
