Biography
editLohse studied at the University of Kiel and University of Bonn, graduating in Bonn in 1989 with a degree in Physics, and completed his PhD at the University of Marburg in 1992. He served as a postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Chicago with Leo Kadanoff from 1993 to 1995. In 1997 he got his Habilitation in theoretical physics at the University of Marburg on the subject of Sonoluminescence. He became the chair of the Physics of Fluids group at the University of Twente in 1998.[2] Lohse has been an external member of the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization in Göttingen, Germany. Since 2016, he is a founding member of the Max Planck Center for Complex Fluid Dynamics at University of Twente.
He is married with two kids.
Scientific Work and Recognition
editHis present work includes turbulence and two-phase flows, thermal convection, granular flow, micro- and nanofluidics, and the biomedical application of bubbles.
He has published over 700 refereed publications[3] with over 160 of them in the Journal of Fluid Mechanics, making him the largest contributor to that journal.
Professor Lohse was a recipient of the 2019 Max Planck Medal, 2018 Balzan Prize, 2017 Fluid Dynamics Prize, 2012 Batchelor Prize, 2005 Spinoza Prize for his work on turbulence, thermal convection, multiphase flow, microfluidics, sonoluminescence,[4] and was awarded with a knighthood in the Order of the Netherlands Lion in 2010.[5] He is also a member of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences since 2005,[6] a member of the National Academy of Engineering since 2017, and a Fellow of the American Physical Society.
