On the 19th of May 2020, our co-founder and dear friend Professor Dr. Huib Ovaa passed away from prostate cancer at the age of 46 years. In the past year, Huib has undergone a variety of treatments while continuing to do what he loved so much, being a scientist and mentor. We will miss him and always be grateful for his valuable contributions to our company and the ubiquitin field.
