Dear Peter,

I am so terribly sorry to hear this. Jan's work has been so important to the field of Indian medical history and will, of course, continue to be so.
My deep condolences to his family.

Sincerely,
Dagmar Wujastyk

Dear Colleagues,

It is with great sadness that I inform you that Gerrit Jan Meulenbeld passed away on March 26th at the age of 88. The cremation will take place in Groningen this Friday.

Jan Meulenbeld was one of the great Dutch Indologists of his generation. His monumental 5-volume A History of Indian Medical Literature (1999-2002) stands as lasting testimony of his profound work on the history of Āyurveda.

A list of his publications may be found here: https://www.dutchstudies-satsea.nl/deelnemers/meulenbeld-gerrit-jan/
