It is with deep regret that we learn of the demise of the eminent sinologist and former director of the École française d'Extrême-Orient (EFEO), Léon Vandermeersch, who passed away on October 17, 2021 at the age of 93.

The entire staff of the EFEO will always remember him with the greatest respect and we express our deepest condolences to his family.
