Advances in pharmacology

I first met Hanns in 1977 and soon learnt of his extraordinary ability as a researcher. He became a friend as well as a mentor providing enthusiasm for my own research. ⋯ But for me his most important contribution was the discovery of the benzodiazepine receptor. During this time, my group uncovered a novel receptor for GABA and my progress in this work was encouraged and enhanced by discussions with Hanns.
