It is with great sadness that we have to inform you of the death of one our members and a Past President of AUGIS.

Professor Robin Williamson has kindly informed the Executive that Mr Christopher Russell has recently passed away. He was a pre-eminent Pancreatic surgeon at the Middlesex Hospital and the second President of our Society from 1998 - 2000. His hard work laid the foundations for todays successful and growing  Society. I’m sure that you will all join me in expressing our condolences to Christopher’s family and friends.
