Timeline
A strong focus of her research is to study the enzyme that is responsible for the conversion of dinitrogen (N2) to ammonia (NH3)—Nitrogenase. Serena DeBeer and her group study this remarkable system comprising a FeMo cofactor (FeMoco) as its active site, and structural model complexes utilizing high-resolution X-ray absorption (XAS) and X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES). Through this work, great progress has been made in understanding the structure of this active site. A key contribution was a spectroscopic identification of the central atom in the active site as a carbide. Moreover, the application of high-resolution XAS spectroscopy supported with theoretical calculations, allowed her group to succeed in the assignment of the oxidation state of the Mo atom in the FeMoco as Mo(III). This study was followed up later with the experimental evidence of a non-Hund spin configuration at the Mo atom by means of X-ray Magnetic Circular Dichroism (XMCD) spectroscopy. Another approach in this field concerns comparative studies of different forms of nitrogenase enzymes with FeMoco and FeVco active sites, Selenium-incorporated FeMoco, as well as spectroscopic characterization of the first intermediate state of the nitrogenase catalytic cycle (E1).
The group of Serena DeBeer in collaboration with the group of Prof. Birgit Kangießer at TU Berlin, developed an in-house dispersive X-ray Emission Spectroscopy (XES) setup. The setup that utilizes a laboratory X‑ray source (Metal Jet) in combination with a von Hamos full cylinder optic with Highly Annealed Pyrolytic Graphite (HAPG) crystal and a CCD detector. This allows obtaining spectra in the 2.4-9 keV range. Moreover, this spectrometer is an alternative to synchrotron-based beamlines for concentrated samples.
Serena DeBeer studied at Southwestern University, Georgetown, TX (USA) where she completed her bachelor program in Chemistry, with minor in Mathematics in 1995 (with honors). She received her doctorate from Stanford University in 2002, working under the guidance of Edward I. Solomon and Keith O. Hodgson. She then moved to SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, where she worked first as a beamline scientist (2001-2003) at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory, and later as staff scientist (2003-2009). In the Fall of 2009, she relocated to Cornell University in Ithaca, NY (USA), where she accepted a faculty position as Assistant Professor at the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology. In the Summer of 2011, she moved to Germany and started to work as a W2-Professor and research group leader at the Max Planck Institute for Bioinorganic Chemistry (since 2012 Max Planck Institute for Chemical Energy Conversion, MPI CEC) in Mülheim an der Ruhr, Germany. Since 2012 she has held the position of an Adjunct Professor at Cornell University as well as an Honorary Faculty position at Ruhr University Bochum since 2014. DeBeer headed the research group "X-ray Spectroscopy" at MPI CEC until 2017 when she was appointed director at this institute and promoted to a W3-Professor. Currently she leads the department of "Inorganic Spectroscopy" at MPI CEC. Additionally, she is the group leader of the PINK beamline project at the Energy and Materials In-Situ Laboratory at the Helmholtz Zentrum Berlin, Germany.
Serena DeBeer (born 1973) is an American chemist. She is currently a W3-Professor and the director at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Energy Conversion in Muelheim an der Ruhr, Germany, where she heads the Department of Inorganic Spectroscopy. Her expertise lies in the application and development of X-ray based spectroscopic methods as probes of electronic structure in biological and chemical catalysis.
