The research institution is named after its co-founder and long-time director, the physicist Abram Feodorovich Joffe (1880-1960). Prof. Dr. Dieter Weiss and his colleague Prof. Dr. Sergey Ganichev from Regensburg have been working together with scientists from the Joffe Institute for about two decades. This collaboration has resulted in about 40 publications, including the renowned journal "Nature".
