Peter G. Hartman

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Peter George Hartman (* 1947 in Brno , Czechoslovakia ) is an English-German biochemist who made fundamental contributions in the field of pharmaceutical research on chemotherapy. He was also involved as a team member in the EU Biofector project.

Live and act

Hartman grew up in the UK and attended school in Portsmouth . He then completed his studies in natural sciences with a focus on chemistry at Merton College in Oxford with an MA and a subsequent research stay at Polytechnic University in Portsmouth. With the dissertation: The Structure of the Lysine-Rich Histone H1: an NMR Study , Hartman received his PhD.

This was followed by stays as a postdoc at the Max Planck Institute in Tübingen and the Biozentrum of the University of Basel . His 25 years of research at F. Hoffmann-La Roche in Basel on anti-fungal and antibacterial chemotherapy , cardiovascular diseases and diabetes led to current forms of therapy. Since his retirement, he has made his experience and specialist language skills available as a translator for specialist publications in EU projects.

Peter Hartman lives with his wife Brigitte in Lörrach (Baden-Württemberg).
