Curriculum Vitae

During her bachelor studies (2012-2015), Johanna Vondran focused on industrial chemistry and finished her thesis on the topic of the “palladium catalyzed aminocarbonylation of unsaturated substrates through formamides” under supervision of Prof. Behr at TU Dortmund. She received the “Deutschlandstipendium” first by Sparkasse Dortmund (2014/15), then by BASF (2015-2017). In advanced stage of her master studies, she went abroad to absolve an internship on flow chemical processes at the University of Melbourne, Australia, in the group of Dr. Polyzos. She graduated in the group of Prof. Vogt in September 2017 at TU Dortmund on the topic of the “palladium-catalyzed carbonylative aminetelomerization of 1,3-butadiene with secondary amines to linear unsaturated pelargonic amides”. Afterwards, she gained industrial work experience through an internship at Covestro in Leverkusen working on UV-curable prepregs. Since April 2018 she has worked as a research associate at the laboratory of industrial chemistry supported by a two-year Ph.D. scholarship by “Fonds der chemischen Industrie”.
