Jörg Rademann

Prof. Dr. Jörg Rademann is a faculty member at Freie Universität Berlin, affiliated with the Institute of Pharmacy within the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences. He serves as Subproject Leader A3 in the Collaborative Research Centre (CRC) 1349 Fluorine-Specific Interactions: Fundamentals and Applications, supported by the German Research Foundation (DFG). His work bridges pharmaceutical sciences and synthetic chemistry with a focus on fluorinated compounds.

His research interests lie at the intersection of medicinal chemistry and chemical biology. With a strong emphasis on fluorine-specific interactions, his work contributes to the rational design of bioactive molecules, particularly in drug discovery and optimization. The strategic incorporation of fluorine atoms in organic scaffolds is central to his investigations, influencing pharmacokinetics, metabolic stability, and target binding affinity.

The thematic focus of his scientific contributions aligns with modern pharmaceutical research, particularly in exploiting fluorine’s unique electronic and steric properties to develop novel therapeutic agents. His leadership in CRC 1349 highlights his role in advancing fundamental understanding with practical applications in medicine and materials.

• Subproject Leader, CRC 1349 (A3), DFG

Prof. Rademann leads a research group within the CRC 1349 framework, mentoring early-career researchers and collaborating across disciplines. While specific grants are not listed, his subproject leadership implies involvement in DFG-funded research. He contributes to the Integrated Research Training Group (MGK), supporting graduate education in fluorine science.

He is part of the research team in CRC 1349, collaborating with chemists, biologists, and physicists across institutions. His lab focuses on synthetic methodologies and structure-activity studies of fluorinated pharmaceuticals, contributing to the broader goals of the collaborative center.
