Gösta Pettersson is an emeritus professor in biochemistry at Lund University, Sweden. He was born in 1937 in Varberg, Sweden. He gained his PhD in 1966 based on a thesis about natural products.^[1] He developed methods in enzyme kinetics based on mathematical modelling and proper statistical analysis, especially for the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase.^[2] He has written a text book on enzyme kinetics.^[3] He also made contributions in control theory of biochemical reaction networks, a predecessor to systems biology. After retirement, he has been engaged in the question of global warming and has published a critical book against alarmists, in which the greenhouse effect is critically discussed out of a scientific and kinetic perspective.^[4]
