معرفی
Prof. Dr. Andreas Speicher is an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Chemistry at Saarland University, leading the Organic Chemistry working group. His research focuses on organic synthesis, axial-chiral macrocycles, natural products, and heterocyclic compounds. He teaches chemistry courses for medicine, biology, and interdisciplinary programs. Key research areas include synthesis of biaryl macrocycles from mosses, atroposelective Heck couplings, and C–H activation strategies. He has authored textbooks such as The Chemistry of Heterocycles (2012) and Reactions and Syntheses in the Organic Chemistry Laboratory (2015). His work has been recognized with awards like the 2018 Preclinical Teaching Award. Prof. Speicher's lab also contributes to clinical chemistry education and German-French chemistry degree programs.
