Introducing the IBOC

Our research

Our mission is the synthesis of exciting natural products. For this we combine traditional chemical methods of natural product synthesis and organoboron chemistry with alternative methods of enzyme catalysis or flow chemistry.

RG SecMetEnz

In the research group "Secondary metabolism enzymology" we investigate unknown enzymes of the secondary metabolism and attempt to utilize them for synthetic applications.

The CLIB Competence Centre for Biotechnology (CKB) is a cross-location joint project for a sustainable, resource-saving economy in North Rhine-Westphalia. The University of Bielefeld, the Technical University of Dortmund, the Heinrich Heine University of Düsseldorf and the Research Centre Jülich are involved. Together, they aim to accelerate the introduction of biotechnological processes.

The DFG-funded Research Training Group GRK2158 provides participating doctoral students with interdisciplinary knowledge in the field of preclinical drug research. The focus of the GRK2158 is the investigation of molecular resistance mechanisms and the search for new active substances using chemoresistant tumours and infections with chemoresistant microbial pathogens as examples.
