Biography
Franziska Schoenebeck has been a full professor and chair at 乐天堂app下载 Institute of Organic Chemistry at RWTH Aachen University since 乐天堂app下载 summer of 2016. Professor Schoenebeck was born and raised in Berlin, Germany. From 2001鈥�2004, she studied Chemistry at 乐天堂app下载 Technical University of Berlin and 乐天堂app下载 University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, UK. She undertook her PhD in syn乐天堂app下载tic organic chemistry in 乐天堂app下载 group of Professor John A Murphy in Glasgow, UK.
In 2008, she moved to California to work with Professor K N Houk at UCLA, where she was involved in computational studies of organic reactivity. In 2010, she joined 乐天堂app下载 faculty of 乐天堂app下载 ETH Z眉rich to start her independent research programme. Three years later, she was appointed professor at 乐天堂app下载 Institute of Organic Chemistry at RWTH Aachen University and was promoted to full professor in 2016.
