Stefan W. Hell (Nobel laureate)

Stefan W. Hell is a physicist who won the Nobel Prize for developing super-resolution microscopy techniques. His work allows scientists to see structures at a much smaller scale than traditional microscopes, breaking the previous limits of optical resolution. This breakthrough enables detailed observation of tiny things inside cells, such as proteins and molecules, helping advance medical research and biology. His innovations have revolutionized how we study the microscopic world, providing insights that were once thought impossible with light-based microscopes.
