BARTHOLOMÄUS (BART) PIEBER

Bart was born in Graz, a small town in the southeast of Austria, where he also studied chemistry. In 2015, he earned his PhD working on organic chemistry in single- and multiphase continuous flow regimes in the group of Prof. C. Oliver Kappe. Following his doctoral work, Bart moved to Peter Seeberger's lab in Potsdam (Germany), where he focused on fluorinations via heterogeneous photocatalysis.
In 2018, he obtained a Liebig fellowship of the German Industry Fond and started his independent research career as a group leader at the Max Planck Institute of Colloids and Interfaces. Since 2019, Bart is also a lecturer at the University of Potsdam.
