Summary

Peter W. thulstrup was born in Aarhus Denmark in 1973. PWT obtained an double major MSc degree from Roskilde University, Denmark in Chemistry and Environmental Biology. In 2003 PWT was awarded the Ph.D. degree in bioinorganic chemistry from the Chemistry Department at the Royal Veterinary and Agricultural University. PWT works on the application of spectroscopy and theoretical methods in bioinorganic and biological chemistry. In particular biophysical studies of the study of structure and function of biomolecules such as DNA, proteins, bioinorganic model compounds and other small - yet typically optically active - compounds.
