Welcome!
Prof. Dr. Rasmus Linser joins CeNS as a new ordinary member
Prof. Dr. Rasmus Linser studied Chemistry at the University of Göttingen and the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid. He performed his PhD work in the group of Prof. Dr. Bernd Reif at the Leibniz Institute for Molecular Pharmacology (FMP) in Berlin and was awarded a PhD degree by the Humboldt University Berlin in 2010. He became a research associate and conjoint lecturer at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) in Sydney and, financed by a Discovery Early Career Research Award (DECRA), performed research in the lab of Prof. Dr. Gerhard Wagner at Harvard Medical School, Boston. In 2014, he returned to Göttingen as a junior group leader for solid-state NMR at the Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry, funded by the Liebig (Verband der Chemischen Industrie) and Emmy Noether (DFG) programs. Rasmus Linser is the awardee of the Felix Bloch Lecture for excellence in NMR spectroscopy in 2015 (Gesellschaft Deutscher Chemiker, GDCh). He has now been appointed as a W2 professor for NMR spectroscopy at the LMU and will move with his group to Munich in autumn 2016. The group's research focus is the application of solution and solid-state NMR in a biochemistry context.
