Professorship for Biosynthesis of Active Ingredients
Around half of all drugs approved worldwide are of plant origin, i.e. they are either obtained directly from plants or were derived from plant ingredients as lead structures. We investigate cellular metabolism in plants using mass spectrometric methods and computer-aided modeling in order to better understand the biosynthesis of active ingredients and to be able to use them in a targeted manner.
Every year we are looking for students from pharmacy, biology, biochemistry, bioinformatics, biosystems engineering, and related disciplines who want to do their final thesis with us (diploma/master/bachelor).
Expressions of interest/unsolicited applications from outstanding candidates for academic positions (doctoral students/postdocs) are welcome at any time.
News
We have a doctoral position to fill. If you are interested, please write to us.
