Dieter Steinhilber, born 1959, studied pharmacy at the University of Tübingen (Germany). After an assistantship there he spent a postdoc period with Nobel prize winner Bengt Samuelson in Stockholm (Sweden). In 1994 he received an associate professorship and since 2000 he is a full professor for pharmaceutical chemistry at the Goethe University in Frankfurt (Germany). Since 1999 he is also director of the Institute of Pharmaceutical Chemistry. From 1999 to 2000 he was dean of the Faculty for Biochemistry, Pharmacy and Food Chemistry. Prof. Steinhilber is the chairman of a European graduate school funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) and is the chairman of the scientific board of Phenion, a company for molecular cell physiology.
Gerd Folkerss is professor of pharmaceutical chemistry at the ETH-Zürich since 1991. He studied pharmacy at the University of Bonn and earned his Ph.D. on structure activity relationships of desapunines. He then moved to the University of Tübingen, where he completed his habilitation in pharmaceutical chemistry. During a stay with H.-D. Hoeltje in Bern, he studied new research methods at the Birkbeck College and E. Meyer at Texas A&M University.
The focus of his research is the molecular interaction between drugs and their binding sites. Besides his work on the molecular mechanism of “conventional” nucleoside therapeutics against virus infection and cancer, his special interest has shifted to immuno-therapeutics.
