Molecular Interactions Matter - Biophysical Screening for Early Drug Discovery

Biography 

Dr Krieger holds a Diploma in Biochemistry from the University of Halle (2000) with a focus on enzymology and obtained his Ph.D. in Biophysical Chemistry from the University of Basel (2004) in the field of protein folding. He then spent three years as a postdoctoral fellow at Louis Pasteur University Strasbourg studying the modulation of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor by small molecules.

In 2008 he joined Evotec as a Research Scientist and became member of the he biochemical Assay Development group. Since this time, he gained experiences in small molecule HTS approaches but also contributed to the setup of Evotec’s biophysics platform. Since 2022 Dr Krieger is heading the biophysics unit at Evotec Hamburg site as VP Biophysics.
