We are sad to hear of the death of Hanns-Ulrich Habermeier who died on July 20th, 2019 in Stuttgart / Germany. He was an internationally well renowned applied physicist, who spent his all career to Materials Sciences. Since several years he had to fight about his illness, remaining very active nearly to the end. At the last May E-MRS / IUMRS / ICAM conference in Nice, he was still active participating to all debates. Unfortunately he lost his last battle.
