Research
We are working in the field of structure-dynamics-function relationships in oligonucleotides, proteins, and their complexes. Our main method is Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (EPR). We synthesize model compounds and spin labels for new EPR methods.

Software
We have developed programs for the analysis of Pulse Dipolar EPR measurements

Bachelor/Master/PhD Projects
We are always looking for motivated students interested in working in an interdisciplinary environment.
Our research topics cover biochemistry, chemical synthesis, and the development and application of EPR spectroscopic methods. If you are interested, get in touch with Olav Schiemann.
Auf der Suche nach dem Metallion
Mit GPS-Prinzip ans Ziel: Wissenschaftlern am Institut für physikalische und theoretische Chemie der Universität Bonn ist es nun gelungen, ein Navigationssystem für Moleküle zu entwickeln, um Metallionen in Enzymen zu lokalisieren, was in der Zukunft bei der Medikamentenentwicklung von großer Bedeutung sein kann
