We mourn the loss of Prof. Astrid Kiendler-Scharr
Our dear colleague and friend Astrid passed away suddenly and unexpectedly on Monday, February 6th 2023, at the age of just 49. We are still under shock and it is hard to find any words to express the big gap she will leave behind.
Our thoughts are with her family and friends and we wish them strength, courage and support for the difficult time ahead.
As one of the founding directors, Astrid has put a lot of heart and energy into creating and shaping CESOC. We will miss her kind and engaging spirit, her creative mindset and her compassionate support. We will do our best to carry on her legacy and plans.
Forschungszentrum Jülich has set up an electronic book of condolences.
Astrid, we will keep you in our memories.
