Stephan Hammer
J.-Prof. for Organic Chemistry and Biocatalysis at Bielefeld University
Stephan Hammer is a highly accomplished researcher leading a group focused on designing and evolving new enzyme functions through a combination of organic chemistry, enzymology, and directed evolution.
His research group's primary goal is to create biocatalysts for synthetic organic chemistry to catalyze essential bond formations like C-C, C-N, and C-O, addressing gaps in current catalytic solutions and expanding metabolic possibilities in living organisms.
Stephan Hammer completed his chemistry studies with a Diploma at The Philipp University of Marburg and continued his education at the University of Cambridge. He also undertook training as a Chemical Laboratory Worker at BASF SE.
With a rich academic and professional background, Stephan has held key positions including Junior-Professor at Bielefeld University, Research Group Leader at the University of Stuttgart, Postdoctoral Researcher at Caltech, and both PhD and Postdoctoral Researcher roles at the University of Stuttgart. He also has experience as a Chemical Technician at BASF.
