Abstract
We are deeply saddened to report that David Gordon Robinson passed away on Tuesday, 5 November 2024. He has left behind his wife and three children. Without doubt, David was one of Europe's leading plant cell biologists and electron microscopists, best known for his research on intracellular trafficking and cellular organization. He is leaving a legacy of groundbreaking research and influence in the field. In this obituary, we want to recapitulate the most important stages from the impressive career of a truly unique character.
期刊介绍:
Protoplasma publishes original papers, short communications and review articles which are of interest to cell biology in all its scientific and applied aspects. We seek contributions dealing with plants and animals but also prokaryotes, protists and fungi, from the following fields:
cell biology of both single and multicellular organisms
molecular cytology
the cell cycle
membrane biology including biogenesis, dynamics, energetics and electrophysiology
inter- and intracellular transport
the cytoskeleton
organelles
experimental and quantitative ultrastructure
cyto- and histochemistry
Further, conceptual contributions such as new models or discoveries at the cutting edge of cell biology research will be published under the headings "New Ideas in Cell Biology".
