She has made important contributions to the rapid high-fidelity synthesis of proteins using automated flow chemistry. Further work included reaction development in flow, development of peptide-drug conjugates for targeted delivery and the synthesis of nonribosomal peptides.
The award will be presented at the New Frontiers in Chemical Biology and Biochemistry conference in Dortmund (30.09.-02.10.2024). Afterwards, the award winner will give a scientific lecture on her research work at at least three other locations in Germany.

The German Chemical Biology Lectureship is awarded every two years to young scientists who work in other EU countries or associated countries, who have not yet reached the age of 40 and who stimulate chemical biology through particularly creative or interesting research approaches. The Gesellschaft für Chemische Technik und Biotechnologie e.V. (DECHEMA), the Deutsche Pharmazeutische Gesellschaft e.V. (DPhG), the Gesellschaft für Biochemie und Molekularbiologie e.V. (GBM) and the Gesellschaft Deutscher Chemiker e.V. (GDCh) are co-financing the award money of EUR 2000. The selection is made by the board of the joint Chemical Biology Division of the four societies.
