In 1913 he became member of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences. He was elected a Foreign Member of the Royal Society in 1926. Following the 29 April 1942 decree that Dutch Jews wear the yellow badge, he was arrested by Nazi police for non-compliance and forced to resign.
According to Margit Szöllösi-Janze, in her book, ''Science in the Third Reich'', Cohen "put great efforts into restoring the relationships of Western European scientists with their German colleagues after the First World War." He was killed on 6 March 1944 in a gas chamber at Auschwitz concentration camp. Provided by Wikipedia
