The Angewandte Author Profiles celebrate an author’s 10th, 25th, 50th, or 100th article in the journal since 2000. This month, the following authors have had their 10th paper published:

Ralph Weissleder, Harvard University, USA:

The biggest problem that scientists face is explaining to the public what we do and why it’s
important.

Paul Floreancig, University of Pittsburgh, USA:

My favorite name reaction is the Lobry–de Bruyn–Alberda–van Ekenstein reaction. It has a great name, and it solved a particularly sticky problem when I was a graduate student.

Jürgen O. Metzger, University of Oldenburg, Germany:

I like refereeing because it gives me a more original picture of the paper.

Masayuki Inoue, University of Tokyo, Japan: The best advice I have ever been given is “The difference between persistence and stubbornness is success” (S. J. Danishefsky).
