About the author
Joost Reek received his PhD in 1996 in the group of Prof. R.J.M. Nolte in the area of supramolecular chemistry. In January 1998 he became lecturer (senior lecturer in 2003) in the group of Prof. Van Leeuwen with research activities focusing on transition metal catalysis. He received numerous grants among which prestigious VICI grant. In 2005 became a young member of royal Dutch academy of sciences (KNAW) and in 2006 he was appointed full professor at the University of Amsterdam.
Sijbren Otto received his Ph.D. degree from the University of Groningen in the Netherlands. After one year in the United States as a postdoctoral researcher with Prof. Steven L. Regen (Lehigh University, Bethlehem, Pennsylvania) he received a Marie Curie Fellowship and moved to the University of Cambridge where he worked for two years with Prof. Jeremy K. M. Sanders on dynamic combinatorial libraries. He started his independent research career in 2001 as a Royal Society University Research Fellow.
