Jory LietardView profile
Assistant Professor
Jory Lietard is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Inorganic Chemistry at the Faculty of Chemistry. His research focuses on nucleic acid chemistry, RNA/DNA microarray synthesis, and light-directed chemical synthesis. He leads three major research projects: FANArrays (2022–2025), RNA arrays: die nächste Generation, and Large libraries of base-modified RNA for Nanopore sequencing (2021–2024). His work contributes to UN Sustainable Development Goals related to sustainable innovation in biosensors and biotechnology. Education: PhD (Privatdozent title) Key Projects: FANArrays: High-throughput platform for nucleic acid synthesis (2022–2025) RNA arrays: Next-generation RNA microarray development Base-modified RNA libraries for nanopore sequencing (2021–2024) Research interests include nucleic acid photolithography, biosensor design, and enzymatic synthesis of oligonucleotides. Recent advancements include color-corrected optical systems for high-resolution nucleic acid printing and accelerated RNA microarray synthesis. Collaborations span material science, optics, and synthetic biology. Media contributions include expert commentary on RNA chip innovations and DNA-based art (e.g., 16 million color palette creation). He actively engages in scientific presentations, including posters at international conferences on photolithography and enzymatic synthesis.
