So sorry to hear this… Jochen was such an amazing person, always full of positivity. He will be sorely missed. My condolences to his family and close ones.
With deep sadness, we share that Prof. Jochen Guck, Director at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light passed away on October 3. His visionary work bridged physics and medicine. We have lost a brilliant scientist and dear friend.
