Did you know... that Raymond P. Ahlquist's discovery of adrenergic receptor subtypes was at first largely ignored but eventually led to the development of widely prescribed beta blocker drugs?

Some mention of the difficulties that Ahlquist had publishing his work and how it contradicted the beliefs of the time would be useful.

Re-translation

Thanks for translating my German Wikipedia article. However, the translator should have taken passages originally in English (citations from Ahlquist) from the original English texts rather than re-translate them from my German.

But thanks. It was high time to give Ahlquist his proper rank.

You did such a great job with the German article and I was shocked there was not an English equilvant so that I took the lazy way out and transcribed what you had written. When I have time, I will look at the original citations to see if I can expand on the work you started. Cheers. Boghog (talk) 22:49, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
