In Memoriam: Emeritus Professor Robin L. Willson
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of one of the ‘founding fathers’ of the free radical and redox fields, Professor Robin Linhope Willson. He died peacefully at his home in Puerto Madryn, Patagonia, Argentina, where he had lived since retiring from Brunel University. He was 81 and leaves behind a wife Vicky, and two children, Emma and Suzy, from his first marriage to Hester Bowen who died in 1996.
