The scientifc director of the Forschungs-Neutronenquelle Heinz Maier-Leibnitz (FRM II) is now member of the Presidential Council next to Dr. Ralf Güldner (President), Stefan vom Scheidt (Vice President) and Ernst-Michael Züfle (treasurer). Prof. Petry succeeds Dr. Peter Fritz, who will still be member of the Presidential Council.

“In my time as vice president I want to emphasize the high value of science and research in the nuclear field for a leading industrial nation as Germany. Despite the planned nuclear power phase-out in, Germany has to continously take a leasing role in the nuclear research. Thus we have enough power to influence international standards and attract researchers from all over the world to Germany, which offers the necessary know-how”, says Prof. Petry on the occasion of his election.
