Contents

The aim of the course is to provide students with a broad understanding of molecular NMR spectroscopy with focus on novel Solid State NMR, Diffusion-NMR and Magnetic Resonance Imaging/Microscopy techniques as used in life science and industry. Applications are presented, ranging from protein aggregation related to diseases, biological membranes and their functional receptor proteins, to new materials as developed in technical, chemical and pharmaceutical industry. Basic understanding of NMR-imaging techniques will be given with special focus on medical diagnosis via MRI, and non-destructive imaging microscopy in industry. The course will be complemented by a basic presentation of quantum theory necessary to describe various NMR phenomena. Students will use “state of the art” NMR equipment to perform their own studies on systems related to life and material science.

Required Knowledge

Quantum Physics (6 credits 5FY047) or Biophysical Chemistry:Spectroscopy (7,5 credits 5KE038) and Biophysical Chemistry:Thermodynamics (7,5 credits 5KE034)or the equivalent English proficiency equivalent to IELTS Academic Training –minimum score 5.0 with no individual score below 4.5 (Tests taken before January 2005 not admissible) or TOEFL – minimum score 500 on paper based test and not below 4.0 on the TWE, Alternatively 173 on computer based test with iBT61 is also required as well as basic entrance requirements for higher studies in Swedish language proficiency if the course in taught in Swedish.
