Aims and objectives

To provide students with a comprehensive overview of ‘hot topics’ in current NMR research. The main objective of this module is to introduce students to current research on MR based techniques and a wide range of applications. This module introduces a number of current key research areas and will involve the students through student presentations and student-led discussions. Students will be encouraged to relate their own research projects to the wide context of currently ongoing research in NMR.

Syllabus

• Cross polarisation and recoupling under MAS
• Applications to materials
• Applications to biomolecules
