Daniel Schick is a Leibniz junior group leader at the Max Born Institute (MBI) for Nonlinear Optics and Short Pulse Spectroscopy in Germany. His research focuses on ultrafast magnetism, employing resonant magnetic scattering techniques across the XUV to soft x-ray spectral range.He is an experienced user of accelerator-based photon sources and is also a developer of laboratory experiments with laser-driven sources of ultrashort x rays. He earned his PhD from the University of Potsdam in Germany in 2013 and subsequently worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the femtoslicing facility at BESSY II, also in Germany, from 2014 to 2017 before joining MBI.
