Autorenporträt

Professor Christian Wolf graduated from the University of Hamburg, Germany in 1993 where he received his Ph.D. in 1995 under the auspices of Professor Wilfried A. K÷nig. After working as a postdoctoral Feodor-Lynen Fellow with Professor William H. Pirkle at the University of Illinois in Urbana, Illinois he took an R&D position at SmithKline Beecham Pharmaceuticals, King of Prussia, Pennsylvania in 1997. In 2000, he accepted a position as Assistant Professor in the Chemistry Department at Georgetown University in Washington, DC where he was promoted to Associate Professor with tenure in 2006. He has been a visiting scholar at the University of Reading, England in 1991 and at the University of Aix-Marseille, France in 1995. Professor Wolf's research interests comprise stereodynamics of chiral compounds, asymmetric synthesis, stereoselective sensing, chiral recognition, transition metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions, development of antimalarial drugs, and chiral chromatography.
