In memorial of Per Jemth

Professor Per Jemth was initiator and coordinater of the IDPro network until his untimely passing February 14th, 2025. Per Jemth was a distinguished scientist in protein biochemistry and biophysics. Per died after a courageous battle with an aggressive form of cancer, which he was diagnosed with only a few months before his passing. Professionally, Per was a very appreciated network coordinator, supervisor, mentor, colleague, lecturer and head of department, and he is greatly missed. Please see his obituary for more information. We carry on the research in the IDPro network in his spirit.
