Open Interview

Bryan Vickery did his BSc in chemistry at Liverpool University, and then studied electrochemistry there for his PhD. He has never regretted his choice of university or city, but having ruined too many pairs of jeans and a laboratory fume cupboard opted for a desk instead of a bench job. He is currently Publisher at BioMed Central with special interest in Chemistry Central. I interviewed him for the Reactive Profile column recently and you can read his thoughts on online published and the open access movement there.
