Chris Marshall, who died on August 8 at age 66, was a world-renowned cell biologist best known for his pioneering contributions to oncogene research and to cell signaling via GTPases, especially to our understanding of tumor cell signaling through the Ras-Raf-Mek-Erk pathway. He spent the whole of his independent research career at the Chester Beatty Laboratories of the Institute of Cancer Research (ICR) in London, where he was Professor of Cell Biology and Head of the Division of Cancer Biology.
