title: COST Action CM1201 "Biomimetic Radical Chemistry": free radical chemistry successfully meets many disciplines.
abstract: The COST Action CM1201 "Biomimetic Radical Chemistry" has been active since December 2012 for 4 years, developing research topics organized into four working groups: WG1 - Radical Enzymes, WG2 - Models of DNA damage and consequences, WG3 - Membrane stress, signalling and defenses, and WG4 - Bio-inspired synthetic strategies. International collaborations have been established among the participating 80 research groups with brilliant interdisciplinary achievements. Free radical research with a biomimetic approach has been realized in the COST Action and are summarized in this overview by the four WG leaders.
