About
Hello everyone, my name is Johann. I am a chemist and I am passionate about research and scientific writing. After studying chemistry at TU Darmstadt, with periods abroad at the University of Edinburgh and the Universita degli Studi di Sassari, I completed my doctorate at the Institute of Organic Chemistry at TU Darmstadt. My dissertation focused on the reaction mechanism of a stereoselective, Pd-catalyzed reaction. After completing my doctorate, I was offered a position as laboratory manager for organic synthesis at a start-up in Wiesbaden that specializes in the production of isotope-labeled specialty chemicals. During my studies and my doctorate, I gained a lot of experience in scientific teaching and always enjoyed supervising students with their theses and research projects.
