Professor John Mullin

We are saddened to learn of the passing away of John Mullin, Professor Emeritus at University College London, after a short illness. John spent his academic life at UCL where he was recognised as an excellent and dedicated teacher and was perhaps best known for his comprehensive book Crystallisation. Whilst some might be enjoying a well-earned retirement, John was planning a comprehensive update of Crystallisation. John was the focal point of crystallisation in the UK in the '60s and '70s attracting visiting scientists from all over the world. Our sympathies go to his wife Averil and family.

The funeral will take place at Breakspeare crematorium in Ruislip at 12.45 on Thursday 19th March.
