from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gunnar Jeschke (born May 19, 1966 in Cottbus ) is a German chemist and university professor.

Life

Gunnar Jeschke grew up in Schwarzheide in Lausitz . After graduating from high school in 1984, he completed his military service with the NVA and in 1988 began studying chemistry at the Technical University in Dresden . He completed this in 1992. In his diploma thesis with Professor Grossmann, Gunnar Jeschke dealt with solid-state NMR spectroscopy. After completing his studies, Jeschke spent a year at RIKEN in Wako-shi in Japan . During the research stay he dealt with photochemistry.

From 1993 to 1996 Jeschke did his doctorate with Arthur Schweiger at the ETH in Zurich.

Following his PhD, Gunnar Jeschke spent a year with Martin Jansen in Bonn as a postdoc . From 1998 he worked as a project manager at the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research in Mainz , where he worked in the environment of Hans Wolfgang Spiess .

In 2006 Gunnar Jeschke was offered a professorship at the University of Konstanz . Since 2008 he has been professor for electron spin resonance at the ETH Zurich .

Jeschke's research area is mainly electron spin resonance. He made numerous contributions in the field of measuring the distances between electron spin labels using Double Electron Electron Resonance (DEER).

Gunnar Jeschke is co-editor of the Journal of Magnetic Resonance and a lively author at Der Freitag .
