Avondlezing door prof.dr. J.H. van Maarseveen georganiseerd door de Chemische Kring Midden Nederland.
Samenvatting
De afgelopen 20 jaar zijn er verschillende Nobelprijzen gevallen in de Organische Chemie.
Naast het bespreken van deze onderwerpen en de impact die ze daarna gehad hebben sta ik stil bij de belangrijkste resultaten van de afgelopen 20 jaar tot het hedendaagse front.
Ik zal eindigen met belangrijke problemen/vragen die er nu liggen en waarvoor de Organische Chemie oplossingen/antwoorden zal moeten vinden.
Curriculum vitae
Jan van Maarseveen holds the chair Bio-inspired Synthetic Organic Chemistry within the Van ’t Hoff Institute of Molecular Sciences at the University of Amsterdam.
He studied chemistry at the University of Nijmegen and received his PhD at this university with Prof. Binne Zwanenburg and Dr. Hans W. Scheeren in 1994. In the same year, he joined Solvay-Pharmaceuticals (Weesp, The Netherlands) as a group leader in the Medicinal Chemistry Department.
He was appointed at the University of Amsterdam in 1999 as an Assistant Professor. In 2004 he briefly joined the group of Prof. Rheza Ghadiri at The Scripps Research Institute (La Jolla, USA) to develop new methods for cyclic peptide synthesis using click chemistry.
His current research interests are the development of novel and bio-inspired synthetic methodology to enable difficult peptide cyclizations, homogeneous organo- and metal-catalyzed catalysis and the combination of organic synthesis and biology.
He is an enthousiastic teacher providing numerous courses within the Science Faculties of both Amsterdam Universities, Amsterdam University College and webcourses for the Universiteit van Nederland. In 2013 he was awarded as the best teacher of the University of Amsterdam. He is a board member of the workgroup Design and Synthesis of the Dutch Organization for Scienctific Research (NWO) and an expert-member of panel WT4 of the Flemish Organization for Scienctific Research (FWO).
