Congrats and farewell to postdoctoral fellow Yannick Geiger, who has started a tenure-track position (Chaire de Professeur Junior) to co-lead the Systems Chemistry Lab at our sister institute in Strasbourg (Chimie de la Matière Complexe). Yannick was only in our group for 11 months but quickly made an impact. We wish you all the best in your independent career!

Proud note: Yannick becomes the sixth PhD/postdoc from our lab to obtain an academic position since 2019, joining Sreejith, Robert, Marie, Abhijit, and Kamila. This doesn’t count research associates (David) or visiting PhD students (Martina) who have also gone on to lead their own academic labs.

A warm welcome to Yannick Geiger, who joins us from the group of Prof. Sijbren Otto at the University of Groningen, where he worked at the interface of systems chemistry and chirality. In our Strasbourg lab, Yannick will work on exploiting aggregation in prebiotic chemistry. Welcome, Yannick!
