Simon Sharpe and graduate students monitoring solid state NMR data

Students with strong computational skills and a working knowledge of the physical concepts relating to spectroscopy and diffraction will find unique research opportunities in this Department.   This includes investigators using x-ray crystallography, NMR, electron microscopy and electron spin resonance spectroscopy to solve and investigate the structures of biological molecules and macromolecular assemblies.
