Very sad news. Over the Christmas break we lost an excellent scientist, a great group leader, an inspirational teacher and a good man in Petr Nachtigall. His fine work, keen eye for an interesting problem and clear enthusiasm for understanding how things really work were the reasons I came to Prague in the first place. He was an inspiration for how to behave with fairness, integrity and honesty, and always had the best interests of his group, his students and his department at heart. His legacy will be not just his impressive scientific output, but how to conduct onesself in the world of science. He was a far-sighted person, who sought to make things better.

He will be missed by us all.
