NMR Spectroscopy at the Interface of Chemistry and Biology
Research in the Charlotte Held Gotfredsen Group focuses on using NMR spectroscopy as a tool to acquire structural knowledge at the interface of chemistry and biology. In our group, we investigate small molecules, oligosaccharides, natural products, and biologically relevant compounds to determine absolute molecular structures, probe ligand–protein Our, and support fragment-based drug discovery (FBDD) using 19F and 1H NMR. Our work integrates chemical synthesis, structural biology, and method development to provide insights into molecular structure and function. The group is part of the NMR Spectroscopy unit of Organic Chemistry.
Research
In addition, our group applies enzymatic and biological machinery to produce novel molecules of chemical and biological interest. Our research bridges chemistry and biology by combining molecular design, synthetic chemistry, and enzymatic transformation.
Beyond scientific research, the Charlotte Held Gotfredsen Group has a strong focus on innovation, leadership, infrastructure development at DTU, and the creation of sustainable business models for research facilities.
