What’s it all about?

Topics/Research and Teaching Profile

Under the leadership of Prof. Dr Röbbe Wüschiers, the Chair combines innovative research with practice-oriented teaching. Our team works on interdisciplinary projects that blur the boundaries between chemistry, biology and engineering: from the discovery of new natural products and the synthesis of chemical active substances to the development of enzymatic catalysts for sustainable processes.

The Chair cooperates closely with regional industry partners, international research institutions and the university community. Through modern laboratory facilities, interactive teaching methods and practice-oriented research projects, it offers students an exciting introduction to the world of Biotechnology and chemistry – and invites researchers to work together to achieve the next scientific breakthroughs.
