Dr Thorsten Kinsinger
About
Thorsten Kinsinger completed his bachelor and master studies in chemistry at Saarland University in Saarbrücken. Afterwards, he worked as a PhD student in the group of Prof. Dr. Uli Kazmaier on the C-H activation of amino acid derivatives and Matteson homologation reactions. After the completion of his PhD thesis in 2022, he joined Prof. Dr. Alexander Titz in the group Chemical Biology of Carbohydrates as a PostDoc focusing on the synthesis of novel antivirals in 2023.
