SYNLETT Welcomes New Editorial Board Member Professor Matthew J. Gaunt
It’s our great pleasure to announce that Professor Matthew J. Gaunt from the University of Cambridge, UK, joined the SYNLETT editorial board as Associate Editor on September 1, 2024.
Matthew Gaunt graduated from the University of Birmingham (UK) in 1995. He moved to the University of Cambridge where he completed his PhD under the supervision of Dr. Jonathan Spencer in 1999. After spending a year as postdoctoral fellow in the group of Prof. Amos B. Smith III at the University of Pennsylvania (USA), he returned to the University of Cambridge in 2001 to do further postdoctoral research in the group of Prof. Steven V. Ley, CBE. In 2003, Matthew started his independent career in Cambridge, where he grew through the ranks of Lecturer (2006), Reader (2010) to Professor (2012). Matthew is also a Co-Director at the Innovation Centre in Digital Molecular Technologies. The research in his group mainly focuses on the development of new chemical reactivity enabled by catalysts and is driven by programs centered on metal-catalyzed C–H bond activation, photoredox catalysis and selective chemical modification of biomolecules.
Detailed Profile & Publications
We welcome Professor Matthew J. Gaunt on the SYNLETT Editorial Board and look forward to a successful and inspiring collaboration!
About SYNLETT
SYNLETT is an international, single-anonymous peer-reviewed journal reporting research results and current trends in chemical synthesis in short, personalized reviews and preliminary communications. It covers all fields of organic chemistry involving synthesis, including catalysis, organometallic, medicinal, biological, and photochemistry, but also related disciplines. Besides quality and data security, speed is of high importance in publishing research results. SYNLETT offers Select Crowd Review (SCR) as an additional option to traditional peer review.

SYNLETT Welcomes New Editorial Board Member Professor Tanja Gulder
We are thrilled to announce that Professor Tanja Gulder from Saarland University, Germany, joined the SYNLETT editorial board as Associate Editor on July 1, 2024.
Tanja Gulder studied chemistry at the University of Wuerzburg where she received her diploma in 2004. After earning her Ph.D. with distinction in 2008 under the supervision of Prof. G. Bringmann, she pursued postdoctoral studies with Prof. P. S. Baran at The Scripps Research Institute (La Jolla, CA, USA). In 2011, she returned to Germany and started her independent career supported by a Liebig Fellowship (Fonds der Chemischen Industrie) at RWTH Aachen. In 2014, she moved to TU Munich as Emmy Noether research group leader and was appointed to the Heisenberg Professorship of Biomimetic Catalysis in 2018. In 2020, she was appointed as Full Professor to the University of Leipzig, Germany. Since 2024 she is Full Professor at Saarland University. Her laboratory is dedicated to biomimetic catalysis (enzyme mimicking), with special focus on halogenations and their application in the synthesis of natural products and therapeutics.

Thieme partners with Cassyni to engage chemists with AI enhanced Cheminar events
Thieme is partnering with Cassyni to enhance “Thieme Cheminars”, a series of live online seminars for the chemistry community. Cassyni offers several quality features that will make the series of mini-symposia more interesting and discoverable. Central to the partnership is a shared mission of building a rich interactive online experience for the research community.
Events will be hosted by editorial members from the Thieme portfolio of chemistry journals and the reference work Science of Synthesis, introducing talks presented by Thieme authors of papers judged to be particularly outstanding. Cheminar events are free to attend and cover topics at the forefront of chemical research of interest to scientists both in academia and industry.
A library of past WebCheminar recordings will be enhanced using Cassyni’s semantic video technology and will be available to watch on demand via Cassyni’s smart video player. Cheminar recordings will be augmented with AI outlines which highlight key moments within the recordings as well as clickable links to Thieme content referenced within talks. Each recording will be assigned a DOI for enhanced discovery through Cassyni’s integrations into the wider scholarly ecosystem.
"Since 2022, we successfully organize our Cheminar series of mini-symposia on selected topics in organic chemistry. To date, 21 WebCheminars have been delivered with renowned experts in their field. We are very excited to enhance our established WebCheminar series with the unique and innovative service that Cassyni provides. Cassyni’s streamlined workflow tools will significantly reduce the time taken to organise and publicise our online events”, says Kathleen Too, Senior Vice President, Thieme Chemistry.
Researchers will also have the opportunity to join the Thieme Cheminar community, which brings together authors, readers and editors of chemistry journals by Thieme. Community members will be notified of future events and can participate in exclusive Q&A discussions with authors for a period after the live events are over. Additionally, community members will also be invited to submit articles to Thieme’s portfolio of chemistry journals and upcoming special issues.
Cassyni Co-founder, Ben Kaube said: “We’re looking forward to working with Thieme and taking their seminar offering to the next level. Cassyni series have been proven to boost researcher engagement with articles, recruit new authors and engage existing authors by providing research video in a convenient and accessible format.”
The first event will be held on the Cassyni platform on 27th of March, 2024 where esteemed authors from across the globe will be discussing Natural Product and Biomimetic Synthesis.
