Comment
Peter Gaudenz Waser was born on 21 July 1918 in Zurich and died on 11 April 2010 in Schiers. Professor of pharmacology, dean, and rector at Zurich University. In the 50's he studied the effects of radioactive labelled curare on neuromuscular junctions. He organized in 1974 the second International Symposium on Cholinergic Mechanisms in Boldern Switzerland
