    Research interests

    I have broad scientific interests within various applications of NMR spectroscopy, from small molecules to proteins. Structure/activity relationship studies are of particular interest (x-filtered transfer experiments, hydration, relaxation, dynamics). 

    I have been working with NMR since 1998, using both Bruker and Varian/Agilent equipment. Working experience includes structure and dynamics studies of Nucleic acids and Proteins, structure verification/elucidation of small molecules in pharmaceutical industry and natural products from bioprospecting, including absolute configuration, as well molecular interactions with proteins and lipid systems.
