Researchers from across the world are invited to study the 3D structures and interactions of proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, lipids and metabolites at the Henry Wellcome Building for NMR.
We offer a £10m national resource based in Birmingham, providing scientists with insights into the molecular basis of human health, cancer progression and infectious diseases.
The advantages of the NMR method include the ability to obtain information at atomic resolution using aqueous solutions, biological fluids and tissue extracts that resemble physiological conditions.
HWB-NMR is the UK's largest NMR facility, providing academic and industrial users with open access to seven NMR spectrometers operating at 500-900 MHz, six cryogenic probes, and high-throughput autosamplers.
