Gabbaï on what gets him inspired: “I am immensely inspired by my contemporaries, especially by those pushing the reach of our discipline to uncharted areas of biology and materials science. What fascinates me in these scientists is their ability to quickly identify problems outside of their area of classical training and understand how chemistry can be used to address these problems.”
What his colleagues say: “He has expanded the boundaries of main-group chemistry in ways that could only have been dreamed about a few years ago and is a sure bet for future trail-blazing achievements.”—Marcetta Darensbourg, Texas A&M University
