NMR Contact and Location
The NMR facility is located in the atrium of the Core Science Buildingin room CSF1225.
Basic card access is granted to all trained users (M-F, 8-6). Access after hours and during the weekend may be granted to advanced users.
Basic maintenance is scheduled every Tuesday morning from 9 to 11. Access is not allowed druing that time and I'm generally not available during that time, sorry!
Research Laboratory Associate - Adjunct appointment as Assistant Professor with Chemistry
PhD Keele University
As a NMR Spectroscopist, I am actively involved in collaborative research requiring solution, solid or micro-imaging NMR, with an incline towards solid-state applied to materials.
