As an organic chemist, should you specialize in synthesis method development or total synthesis?

In his inspiring talk at #Lunteren2026, Alois Fürstner from the Max-Planck-Institut für Kohlenforschung shows how his group is excelling at both and makes the point that there is important cross-fertilization between the two research directions in his group.
