He built the first two-photon microscope while he was a graduate student (and briefly a postdoc) in Watt W. Webb's lab at Cornell University, in 1989.
Early life and education
Denk was born in Munich, Germany.
As a child he spent most of his playtime learning to use the tools and building materials in his father's workshop. In school it became apparent that Denk’s ‘talents were unevenly spread across subjects, math and physics being favored’.[1] Fixing and constructing electronic devices was his main hobby throughout high school.
