Dr. Christoph Hirschhäuser

Christoph has studied Chemistry in Cologne. There he also received his PhD after working in the group of Professor Schmalz on the synthesis of iron-containing nucleoside analogues. After that he went to Bristol, where he worked as a postdoc in the group of Professor Gallagher on natural product synthesis and later for AstraZeneca.

In 2012 he came to Essen where he became a permanent employee (Akad. Rat.) in 2014.

Kevin Bojaryn (M. Sc.)

Kevin joined the group for his Bachelor´s thesis and afterwards decided to stay for some more work on new methods for diastereoselektively making glycols and alkenes from boronates.

In his Master´s thesis he investigates new routes towards highly substituted alkenes.
