Organic Structural Chemistry in the Spotlight

On Friday, 1st October, during the annual discussion meeting of the division Magnetic Resonance (FGMR) of the German Chemical Society (GDCh) Ann-Christin Pöppler was awarded with the Felix-Bloch Lectureship 2021 for her work on organic structural chemistry in the context of drug delivery. As awardee and therefore an ambassador for magnetic resonance, Ann-Christin is especially happy to get the possibility of doing four presentations across Germany and share her enthusiasm and research about NMR spectroscopy. During her award lecture she talked about “Taking up the chase with NMR spectroscopy – From structural insights into solid drug-polymer formulation to their fate in biorelevant media”.

With four posters we started to join the SMASH (Small Molecules Are Still Hot) Online conference!

The first paper within Sebastians's PhD project on polymeric drug delivery systems in biorelevant media was recently accepted for publication the Journal of Colloid and Interface Science!

After two weeks of working on a real scientific problem including measuring and evaluating data, the participants designed scientific posters which were presented at our virtual conference via gathertown!

To show you what Team Pöppler is working on and who we are, we made a small video. You can find it on the front page.

As every year, Team Pöppler went on a group trip. This year, due to bad weather, we went to an Escape Room with some tricky riddles. Afterwards, we went to our grillmaster Malte and had a nice evening with tasty food and drinks.

Yesterday, we had our second online game night at Team Pöppler!

Gartic Phone and "city, land, river" with very creative categories made a lot of fun :D Thanks for joining, we are looking for a repetition soon!

Marvins paper, titled "14N–1H HMQC solid-state NMR as a powerful tool to study amorphous formulations – an exemplary study of paclitaxel loaded polymer micelles", is featured as a video on the website of the UK High-Field Solid-State NMR Facility at the University of Warwick, UK. The video can be found on our front page.

Congratulations to Malte who finished his joint Master’s Thesis with AK Högger and Meinel! We hope to see you soon and wish you all the best for the future.

Our first PhD student Marvin just defended his Thesis and may now be called Dr. Grüne.

Isabelle has handed in her Bachelor's Thesis titled "Weißes Gold: Detaillierte Untersuchung und Charakterisierung von Elagolix Salzen". Congratulations and all the best for your future studies.

The first paper from Marvin, is one of the most popular articles in 2020 in the Journal of Materials Chemistry B.

As our first PhD student, Marvin, will be finished soon with his defense, the group came together to craft his mortarboard.
