The natural product chemist and Director at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology in Jena has been elected a member of the German National Academy of Sciences.
As the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology, we are fully committed to the principle of scientific freedom as enshrined in Article 5 of the German Basic Law and recognized worldwide as a fundamental human right.
The award recognizes her outstanding research in the chemistry and biochemistry of plant natural products, with particular emphasis on the detailed elucidation of metabolic pathways and the engineering of novel pathways and compounds for biomedical applications.
The doctoral researcher from the Department of Insect Symbiosis gave an excellent talk about the temporal and spatial dynamics of symbiont lineages in a grain pest beetle.
At the 39th Annual Meeting of the International Society of Chemical Ecology (ISCE), currently taking place in Prague, Jonathan Gershenzon, Managing Director of our Institute and Head of the Department of Biochemistry, was awarded the Society's Silver Medal.
Jonathan Gershenzon, Head of the Department of Biochemistry, has been elected to membership of the European Molecular Biology Organization (EMBO). This prestigious honor recognizes his outstanding contributions to the life sciences.
