Stefan Hell is a German physicist known for his pioneering work in the field of super-resolution microscopy. He was born on December 23, 1962, in Arad, Romania. Hell significantly contributed to the development of fluorescence microscopy techniques that allow researchers to visualize structures at the nanometer scale, exceeding the diffraction limit of conventional light microscopy. In 2008, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, shared with Eric Betzig and William E.
