Jeff's Views provide a witty, insightful, and thought-provoking look into the life of a modern scientist. From starting off to letting him, Gottfried ("Jeff") Schatz leads us through the trials and triumphs of scientific life. With his tongue firmly in his cheek, and his humor always intact, the Austrian essayist leads us through the confusion and seemingly insurmountable hill. In addition to giving insights into the science of the human genome, the evolution of sensoric receptors , and cellular suicide.

Gottfried Schatz is one of the world's leading scientists in bioenergetics and mitochondria biology. Born in a small Austrian village, he was the President of the Swiss Science and Technology Council. With stints as a violinist in Austrian opera houses, professorships in the USA and Switzerland, and numerous prestigious awards along the way, Jeff is a true European, whose unique, and often controversial, viewpoints are appreciated by scientists and politicians alike.

These essays look at very often - critical, sometimes sad, but always with excitement, wonder, and admiration. It is hoped that they will look at science with a slightly different view.
