Before that his expertise in physics and engineering as a member of the ICNIRP Standing Committee III was extremly beneficial in particular to the development of the ICNIRP 1998 EMF guidelines. He will be remembered as a very enthusiastic, inclusive, and kind person, able to underline the core of the scientific problems. Highy dedicated to NIR protection and science he greatly contributed to the development and worldwide dissemination of the ICNIRP guidance.
We extend our condolences to his family, friends and colleagues.
