Dear ASI Members,
It is with profound sadness that we inform our members of the passing of Emerita Professor Ieva Kotlarski.
Prof. Kotlarski was an ASI Honorary Life member, recognised for her pivotal contributions to Immunology & Cell Biology (ICB) and ASI. Ieva was ICB's first Editor-in-Chief from 1987-1992, and played a major role in securing ASI's ownership of the journal ICB, for which we are truly indebted. Ieva was also Derrick Rowley's first PhD student and longstanding work colleague for more than 25 years.
