Obituary: Pierre Potier (1934–2006)
François Chast1
Abstract
Pharmacist and natural-products chemist, who devised widely used treatments for cancer.
Pierre Potier, who died on 3 February 2006 at the age of 71, was at the forefront of the French school of natural-products chemistry during the second half of the twentieth century. He was a leading light in the development of anticancer drugs from natural sources, and also in encouraging communication between the public and private sectors.
- François Chast is in the Department of Pharmacy, Pharmacology and Toxicology, Hôtel-Dieu Hospital, 1 place du Parvis Notre-Dame, 75004 Paris, France.
