Multinuclear Solid-State NMR Studies of Environmental and Biological Systems


EMSL Project ID
47725

Abstract

My research team at EMSL carries out a number of studies that utilize a combination of high-resolution, solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and computational chemistry to address areas of national need. My research projects include scientific explorations in environmental, biological, and energy sciences. Specific Aims for the research to be completed in FY13 include studies in reactive surface area for catalysis science, catalytically-active sites in zeolites and related materials, structural studies of membrane associated biomolecules, in-cell solid-state NMR studies, NMR studies of the assembly and structure of MetJ oligomers on DNA, chemical shift anisotropy measurements to predict magnetic properties in silicates, and dynamical behavior of hydrocarbons under nanopore confinement.
