On March 13, 2017, SYNTHESIS Editor Thorsten Bach will be presented the Horst-Pracejus-Award by the Gesellschaft Deutscher Chemiker (GDCh) at the Chemiedozententagung in Marburg, Germany.

We warmly congratulate Professor Thorsten Bach on this great achievement and look forward to new developments in his research!
