Bernd Johannsen (born May 27, 1939 in Salzwedel ) is a German chemist . From 2003 to 2006 he was Scientific Director of the Rossendorf Research Center .

Live and act

Bernd Johannsen studied chemistry from 1957 to 1963 at the Technical University of Dresden and received his doctorate in 1966 in the field of protein chemistry . From 1963 to 1966 he was an assistant at the Institute for Biochemistry and Food Chemistry at the TU Dresden, from 1966 to 1982 research assistant and later working group leader at the Central Institute for Nuclear Research (ZfK) Rossendorf. His main focus was on radiopharmaceutical work.

He completed his habilitation in the radiopharmaceutical field in 1981 and the postgraduate qualification as a specialist in medicine in 1982. The teaching qualification (Facultas Docendi) was awarded to him in 1984. From 1982 to 1991 he headed the Radiochemistry / Radiopharmacology Department at the Clinic for Nuclear Medicine, Charité , Humboldt University in Berlin and worked as an associate lecturer in nuclear medicine . In 1985/86 he worked for four months as a visiting researcher at the Johns Hopkins University Baltimore, USA.

In 1991 he was appointed acting head of the Institute for Bioinorganic and Radiopharmaceutical Chemistry at the Rossendorf Research Center and was director of this institute from 1993 to 2003. He also held a C4 professorship for bioinorganic and radiopharmaceutical chemistry at the TU Dresden from 1994 to 2004 .

From 2003 to 2006 he was Scientific Director of the Rossendorf Research Center. During his time as Scientific Director, OncoRay opened in 2005 , the innovation competence center for medical radiation research in oncology , in which the Rossendorf Research Center, the TU Dresden and the University Clinic cooperate. The further expansion and completion of the ELBE radiation source also fell during his term of office . He has published over 200 scientific publications .

He has been a member of the Leibniz Society since 2007 . Johannsen lives in Dresden.

Of Johannsen's scientific and science-political activities in national and international bodies, the following are particularly noteworthy:

  • Teaching participation in the European post-graduate course "Radiopharmaceutical Chemistry / Radiopharmacy" at ETH Zurich
  • Co-editor of the journal Nuclear Medicine and Biology (until 2006)

Awards

Johannsen received the Walter Friedrich Prize of the Society for Radiology in 1981 . In 1990 he was awarded the Rudolf Virchow Prize , the science prize of the Ministry of Health of the GDR. Since 2006 Johannsen has also been an honorary member of the German Society for Nuclear Medicine .
