CHEM/BCMB 4190/6190/8189
Introductory NMR / Fundamentals of NMR
(Fall 2015)
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) is a form of spectroscopy
that uses the magnetic properties of nuclei to probe molecular
structure. It has found applications in analysis of organic and
inorganic compounds, in structure determination of biological
macromolecules, and even in medical imaging. This
introductory course is intended to serve a broad audience
seeking a background in principles behind NMR methodology
as well as a practical introduction to how data are acquired and
analyzed. Material is presented partly in lecture and partly in
laboratory formats. It is an ideal stepping-stone to more
advanced courses offered in biomolecular NMR (CHEM/BCMB
8190) as well as other application-oriented courses.
The three courses share lecture and laboratory presentations.
Grading is based on exams, written laboratory reports, and an
evaluation of classroom and laboratory participation. For 8189,
completion of an additional independent study project is
required.
