We offer our deepest condolences to Nicola's family, friends & colleagues. She was a remarkable mentor to many & leader in her field. She will be greatly missed but also fondly remembered for her enormous professional impact, & the kindness & generosity showed to those she guided
We are deeply saddened to share that Professor Nicola Fear CBE, Director of King’s Centre for Military Health Research (KCMHR) and Professor of Military Epidemiology at King's College London, died earlier this week.
