PD Dr. habil. Thomas Letzel, born in 1970, studied chemistry (1992-1998) at the Technical University of Munich and the LMU Munich and received his doctorate in 2001 with an environmental analysis topic at the Technical University of Munich and then completed a two-year postdoctoral stay at the Vrijen Universiteit Amsterdam. In 2009 he habilitated at the Technical University of Munich, where he has been teaching and researching as a private lecturer ever since. Until 2018 he was head of the analytical research group AFG at the TUM, 2014-2017 acting head of the professorship for pharmaceutical analysis at the LMU and has been the founder and managing director of the Analytical Research Institute for Non-Target Screening GmbH (AFIN-TS) since 2018. To date, he has developed many new analytical platforms, workflows and strategies for the detection, identification and determination of functional properties of organic molecules from complex mixtures in the various scientific disciplines. The results are reflected in his more than 75 scientific publications and 4 books to date.
