Life

Andrea Sinz was born in Albstadt-Ebingen in 1969. After studying pharmacy at the University of Tübingen from 1988 to 1993 , she received her doctorate in 1997 on the subject of ingredients of cytotoxic extracts from Dasymaschalon sootepense Craib, Anomianthus dulcis (Dun.) Sinclair and Ellipeiopsis cherrevensis Fries at the Institute for Pharmaceutical Chemistry at the University of Marburg . From 1998 to 2000 she worked as a postdoctoral fellow at the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda , USA. After her return to Germany she worked at the universities of Gießen and Rostock . During this activity, she completed her training as a specialist pharmacist for pharmaceutical analysis . She then went to Leipzig to head the junior research group "Protein-ligand interaction using ion-cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry" at the Faculty of Chemistry and Mineralogy from 2001 to 2006. There habilitated they are in specialist Bioanalytical Chemistry on Structural and functional characterization of proteins by mass spectrometric methods .
