Professor Jonas Peters has been recognised by SCIENCE students as an inspiring teacher of causality and mathematical models.
John Renner Hansen describes his unconventional trajectory to an academic career, where he needed both a Plan A and Plan B, especially in his duties managing scientists and staff as the dean of Faculty of Science.
