Brown University shooter Claudio Neves-Valente was found dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound inside of a storage unit in Salem, New Hampshire, on Thursday evening.
Claudio Neves-Valente was a Brown University student and a Portuguese national.
On Thursday evening, officials said Claudio Neves-Valente also killed MIT professor Nuno Loureiro earlier this week at his Brookline, Massachusetts, home.
47-year-old Nuno Loureiro, a nuclear science and engineering professor, was shot multiple times, according to police.
Loureiro was transported to a Boston hospital and died Tuesday morning.
Loureiro, who was also from Portugal, was recently appointed director of MIT’s Plasma Science and Fusion Center.
“Loureiro is taking the helm of one of MIT’s largest labs: more than 250 full-time researchers, staff members, and students work and study in seven buildings with 250,000 square feet of lab space,” MIT said earlier this year.
“A theoretical physicist and fusion scientist, Loureiro joined MIT as a faculty member in 2016, and was appointed deputy director of the Plasma Science and Fusion Center (PSFC) in 2022. Loureiro succeeds Dennis Whyte, who stepped down at the end of 2023 to return to teaching and research,” MIT said.
Officials said that Claudio Neves-Valente and MIT professor Loureiro attended the same university in Lisbon years ago.
