}} Winfried Denk (born 12 November 1957 in Munich) is a German physicist, director of the Max Planck Institute of Neurobiology in Martinsried, close to Munich.[1]

Career

Denk is noted for being the first to implement two-photon microscopy while a postdoctoral fellow in Watt W. Webb's lab at Cornell University in 1990. Denk later (1994) recognized that two-photon microscopy has unique properties for imaging live cells deep in highly scattering tissues. His second major invention is a machine that automatically acquires three-dimensional images at a resolution of a few nanometers. This technique, known as Serial Block-Face Scanning Electron Microscopy (SBFSEM or SBEM), has been commercialized by the company Gatan.[2]

Recognition

For his achievements, Denk was awarded the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Prize in 2003, the Kavli Prize in 2012 and the Brain Prize in 2015.[3][4] He was appointed as foreign member of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) in 2013.[5]

Other activities

  • Center of Advanced European Studies and Research, Member of the Board of Trustees[6]
  • Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters, Member[7]
