Filming ultrarapid dynamics in molecules

Early in his career as a scientist, Geert Reitsma has already produced exceptional results. Three years of PhD research have yielded ten articles in renowned journals. His most recent measurements made with the soft X-ray free-electron laser FLASH in Hamburg are remarkable. He was the first in the world to conduct an experiment using isolated biomolecules.

The weekly online video magazine Unifocus highlights topics related to the University of Groningen in the fields of research and society, student life, teaching, policy and internationalization.
