The Fan Studies Network is deeply saddened to share the news that Mark Duffett passed away on 15 February after a short illness. Mark's work was incredibly influential in the field but more than that he was a kind and generous scholar who offered his support to so many of us.

So sad at the news of the sad loss of Dr Mark Duffett. He was such a wonderful friend & colleague. He helped so many people in fan studies, popular music studies & beyond. Such a big loss, I will miss him so much 😭
