Research interests

Our research interests include the palladium(II)-catalysed synthesis of carbazole alkaloids and the development of novel iron-catalysed transformations. In cooperation with our partners in the field of biology and medicine we develop new Myosin-ATPase inhibitors, anti-TB active compounds and strategies for treatment of Alzheimer's disease.
