Jan Huisken

Jan Huisken (born November 26, 1974 in Göttingen ) is a German physicist . He has been Research Group Leader and Medical Engineering Director at the Morgridge Institute for Research at the University of Wisconsin at Madison since 2016 . Huisken is regarded as the founders of modern light sheet microscopy and was for his work with the medal for light microscopy 2017, the Royal Microscopical Society excellent (RMS).  

Life

Huisken studied physics at the Georg August University of Göttingen and the Ruprecht Karls University of Heidelberg . He was then a doctoral candidate in the international doctoral program of the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) in Heidelberg . In the group of Ernst HK Stelzer, he conducted research on optical traps and high-resolution fluorescence microscopy from 2000 to 2004. The focus was his work on the multi-dimensional light sheet microscopy (Selective Plane Illumination Microscopy, SPIM) and its applications in the life sciences . Huisken completed this work with a doctorate at the Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg in 2004. As one of the first applications of light sheet microscopy, Huisken turned to the examination of Medaka embryos in Joachim Wittbrodt's laboratory. In 2005, Huisken moved to Didier Stainier's group at the University of California in San Francisco for a post-doctoral position . With the microscope he built himself, he researched cardiovascular morphogenesis and function in the zebrafish . Through this work he achieved a breakthrough as an international microscope developer today.

From 2010 to 2016, Huisken was an independent group leader at the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics in Dresden , Germany . In 2013 he also joined the Center for Systems Biology in Dresden. Since 2016 he has been group leader and director of the Medical Engineering department at the Morgridge Institute for Research in Madison at the University of Wisconsin in Madison.

Huisken is married and has two children.
