Christina Marie Thiele
Technische Universität Darmstadt
Christina M. Thiele grew up in Linz/Austria. She studied chemistry in Dortmund and London. Following her doctoral studies in organometallic chemistry in Dortmund, she decided to move deeper into NMR and started doing independent research in Leipzig and Darmstadt. Since 2011 she is full professor at the Technische Universität Darmstadt.
Her research is focused on methods development for the NMR spectroscopic determination of conformations and configurations of organic compounds and catalyst. In recent times she also specializes on employing light, both as stimulus for photochromic compounds, and in reaction monitoring. The driving force of her research is a deeper understanding of structure activity relationships in organic chemistry.
