About this person
He was director of the institute until 1937, when he was "falsely accused of participating in so-called anti-Soviet sabotage and terrorism and arrested." On 14 April 1939 he was found guilty of participation in a terrorist organization, and on the next day he was shot and buried at the Kommunarka shooting ground. The real reason for his execution was his opposition to Lysenkoism.
