Index
Martin Egli studied chemistry and received his doctorate in organic chemistry and chemical crystallography at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) in Zurich, Switzerland. He has conducted research on the structure and function of native and artificial nucleic acids at the ETH, MIT, and Northwestern University, and currently holds an appointment as Professor of Biochemistry in the School of Medicine at Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tennessee, USA. Piet Herdewijn is Professor at the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium, and head of the laboratory of medicinal chemistry at the Rega Institute. He obtained his Ph.D. and habilitation from the same university. He was a postdoctoral fellow of the Humboldt Foundation at the University of Konstanz. He has conducted research in bioorganic and medicinal chemistry, mainly in the field of nucleosides, nucleotides, and nucleic acids, at the University of Leuven, the University of Ghent, and the Universite d'Evry-Val-d'Essonne.
