Im memoriam: Niko de Jaeger

BePCIS gratefully remembers Niko de Jaeger (1942 – 2016) for his contributions in the field of colloids and particles.  Niko was a great friend, colleague, mentor and role model to many of us.  He was a driving force behind the Belgian Particle and Colloid Society and a much respected advisor and lecturer.
