Dieter Sicker is lecturer and a practical supervisor at the Institute of Organic Chemistry at the University of Leipzig, he was awarded the title apl. professor in 1997. He is fond of presenting experimental shows in which the beauty of chemistry is both shown and explained to the public.
 
Klaus-Peter Zeller worked several years as technician before he could realise his dream to study chemistry. In 1972 he received his doctoral degree from the University of Tübingen. After postdoctoral work at the Heriot-Watt University Edinburgh he returned to Tübingen where he became Professor in 1983. His research and teaching interests focus on reaction mechanisms, photochemistry, mass spectrometry, and more recently science history.
 
Hans-Ullrich Siehl is Professor at the university of Ulm. His main interests in experimental physical organic chemistry and NMR spectroscopy were successively expanded and complemented by quantum chemical methods such as computational NMR spectroscopy.
 
Stefan Berger is Professor at the University of Leipzig. In his research he combines methodological development of NMR and its application to bioorganic problems.
