Prof. Burkhard Koenig jest specjalistą w zakresie katalizy, zwłaszcza fotokatalizy oraz syntezy receptorów różnego typu struktur biologicznych. Aktualnie, realizuje ERC Advanced Grant pt. Photocatalytic Generation of CarbAnions for Organic Synthesis. Jest współautorem ponad 550 publikacji. Indeks H = 78 (Scopus), 86 (Google Scholar).
Prof. Burkhard König, born 1963 in Wiesbaden, received his doctorate in 1991 from the University of Hamburg under the direction of Prof. de Meijere. He continued his scientific education as a postdoctoral fellow with Prof. M. A. Bennett, Research School of Chemistry, Australian National University, Canberra, and Prof. B. M. Trost, Stanford University. In 1996 he obtained his habilitation at the University of Braunschweig. Since 1999 he is full professor of organic chemistry at the University of Regensburg. He was a dean of the Faculty of Chemistry and Pharmacy at the same university (2011-2015), Member of the executive board of the German Chemical Society (2004-2007), Chairman of the Liebig Vereinigung (National organic division; 2008 – 2012). He is a member of the advisory boards of Chem. Eur. J. (since 2014), Eur. J. Org. Chem (since 2014, Chair). and editor of the Science of Syntheses reference volume on photocatalysis. He was recognized with several awards and distinctions e.g., ERC Advanced Grant (2016), Highly cited researcher (2021, Clarivate), Chemistry Europe Fellow (2019), Reinhard-Koselleck grant of the DFG (2017), UN-Decade Award on Sustainability (2011/2012), Literature award of the Fonds of the German Chemical Industry (2007), Invitation fellowship award of the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (1996), award of the Dr. Otto Röhm Gedächnisstiftung (1995). He is an author of more than 550 papers and reviews, 60 book reviews and science related articles. His H-index is 78 (Scopus), 86 (Google Scholar). His current research interests focus on the development of synthetic receptors for the recognition of biological target structures and the application of visible light chemical photocatalysis for organic synthesis.
