About the Author
C. Oliver Kappe is Associate Professor of Organic Chemistry and Director of the Christian Doppler Laboratory for Microwave Chemistry at the University of Graz, Austria, where he also received his doctorate in 1992. After postdoctoral research work with Professor Curt Wentrup at the University of Queensland in Brisbane, Australia, and with Professor Albert Padwa at Emory University in Atlanta, USA, he returned to the University of Graz, obtaining his lecturing qualification in 1998. He has been a visiting scientist/professor at the Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla, USA, and at the Tokyo Institute of Technology in Japan. Professor Kappe’s current research focuses on microwave-assisted synthesis and continuous flow processing.

Doris Dallinger studied chemistry at the University of Graz, Austria, obtaining her diploma in the field of solid phase organic synthesis in 2001. She continued with a PhD under Prof C. Oliver Kappe on projects related to microwave chemistry and high-throughput synthesis. After receiving her doctorate in 2005, she joined the Christian Doppler Laboratory for Microwave Chemistry at the University of Graz as a postdoctoral research associate and is currently working on projects related to specific microwave effects and the scale-up of microwave-assisted reactions.

S. Shaun Murphree is Associate Professor of Chemistry at Allegheny College in Meadville, Pennsylvania, USA. He received his bachelor?s degree in chemistry from Colgate University in Hamilton, NY, and his doctorate in organic chemistry from Emory University in Atlanta, GA, under the direction of Professor Albert Padwa. He subsequently pursued post-doctoral study under Professor Peter Jacobi at Wesleyan University in Middletown, CT. After seven years in R&D at Bayer Corporation, he returned to academia in 1999, including a sabbatical at the Christian Doppler Laboratory for Microwave Chemistry at the University of Graz, Austria.

Why Natural Breast Cancer Treatment is Best For Your Body

There is currently a raging debate about whether conventional or natural treatments are best for fighting your breast cancer.?Those on the conventional side will say that cancer cannot be cured, only managed, and that natural treatments have not been backed up scientifically.?Those on the natural side will say that conventional treatments are barbaric and usually do more harm than good.

I am a proponent of the natural way of doing things.?I believe that your body has developed breast cancer because of imbalances internally and if you can correct those imbalances, you can eliminate the cancer entirely.?Cutting off body parts and pumping… Continue reading

The Best Way to Help Someone With Breast Cancer

I’m sure most, if not all of us have had someone close to us diagnosed with breast cancer. Many of us have watched that person go through round after round of chemotherapy. Many of us have watched as their bodies were forever surgically altered. Many of us have watched them lose their battle and pass away. Whatever your experience may be, one thing is certain. Trying to find the right way to help someone with breast cancer can be tough.

I’ll fully admit that there are no right or wrong answers here. It will largely… Continue reading
