We were sad to learn that Ilkka Hanski, Head of the Ecology Faculty, passed away on May 10th after a long illness.
Dr Hanski joined F1000 as a Faculty Head in 2004. He was a highly renowned and widely cited ecologist, considered the father of metapopulation theory. A leading researcher in ecology and evolutionary biology, Ilkka Hanski was the Director of the Metapopulation Research Center at the University of Helsinki.
The University of Helsinki has posted an obituary on their news site.
F1000 sends our sincere condolences to his family, friends and colleagues.
