In memory of Marcus Maurer, we are opening this digital book of condolences to give everyone the opportunity to express their grief, memories and sympathy. Together let us collect the beautiful moments, small and big stories with Marcus and the meaning Marcus had for us in this place. We have lost a brilliant person, an excellent teacher, an outstanding scientist and a warm-hearted friend. Our thoughts are with his family and all those who were friends and close to him.

It was in 2014 when I established contact with Professor Maurer. I submitted an application for his postdoctoral study and arrived in Berlin in 2015 to commence my postdoctoral research. I am extremely grateful to him for providing me with the opportunity, thus enabling me to identify my lifelong academic research direction. Since 2016, I have received funding from Professor Maurer to carry on my research and study in Berlin until 2020, when I returned to China due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Fortunately, in July 2024, we had the honor of inviting Professor Maurer to visit our hospitals in Suzhou, and we got along very well during the brief 2-day period. However, unexpectedly, after he returned to Germany at the end of July, had an accident while hiking during his vacation. I am profoundly sorrowful and devastated that we have lost him forever, but he will always remain in my heart, and I will continue to follow his passion for studying Urticaria, hoping that one day I can return to Berlin and lay a bouquet of flowers on his tombstone. Professor Maurer, I will always remember and love you!
