Solid state NMR workshop 2026

The UK High-Field Solid-State NMR Facility (organiser Professor John Griffin, University of Lancaster) is hosting a free one-day in-person workshop on solid-state NMR for those with limited or no knowledge of solid-state NMR (some experience of liquid-state NMR will be beneficial). The workshop will provide hands-on experience with the most advanced high-field solid-state NMR capabilities available in the UK. There will also be a tutorial on key concepts and techniques in solid-state NMR and NMR crystallography, which is supported by the Collaborative Computational Project for NMR Crystallography. The workshop will be held on Monday 20th April 2026 with a dinner for attendees and overnight accommodation provided the evening before. Places are limited to 16 participants and we are often oversubscribed so may not be able to accommodate all requests. Preference will be given to participants who register to attend the annual symposium.
