Enantioselective Hydrogenation of Carbonyls and Imines

We just learned about some innovations regarding enantioselective hydrogenation of alkenes which utilize homogeneous catalysis and chiral catalysts. Can we employ the same approach to hydrogenate other functional groups? What about carbonyls and imines? We certainly can! Let's check out some developments in this area.
