News from HWB-NMR
We are pleased to be partners on the recent EU Commission funded project, "Remote NMR (R-NMR)", that aims to establish wide-spread remote access for all users to NMR spectrometers across Europe. Including 26 European NMR facilities, the consortium will work together to create guidelines and best practice for remote access to NMR instrumentation, for storage of and secure access to NMR data, and for remote training of users, including training of non-experts. Part of the program will be to monitor CO2 consumption, with the aim of reducing the overall CO2 footprint of NMR infrastructures. Please visit the website for further information.
We are excited to offer UK-based academics, involved in biomedical research, Wellcome-supported free access on the new 1.0 GHz, 900 (& 800) MHz spectrometers. Get in touch
We are delighted to announce the appointment of Professor Teresa Carlomagno as the new Director of HWB-NMR from 1 October 2021. We look forward to Professor Carlomagno joining the UK NMR community and taking the GHz facility forward in this new decade and beyond.
UK's highest field NMR spectrometer (1.0 GHz) has arrived at HWB-NMR under blue skies - early stages of installation currently taking place - very exciting!
HWB-NMR's annual NMR user meeting took place on Friday 16 Nov 2018. Thanks to our speakers for great talks: Rafael Brueschweiler (Ohio), Cyril Dominguez (Leicester), Zuhal Eraslan (Birmingham), Rivka Isaacson (KCL), Beatriz Jimenez (Imperial College), Geerten Vuister (Leicester/Birmingham).
NMR Basic Training week 2018 in Metabolomics by NMR and MS was held 12-15 Nov. We enjoyed welcoming delegates and instructors to the course. Big thanks to all the instructors for giving generously of their time. Course organiser: Dr Christian Ludwig.
The new 800 MHz NEO spectrometer console has been installed and the 5mm TCI cryoprobe (with 19F capability) is now available to use. A 1.7mm TCI cryoprobe to follow in 2019. Free Wellcome-Trust supported access to UK users! Please email Dr Sara Whittaker for access.
HWB-NMR has been selected by UKRI to host a national 1.0 GHz spectrometer for solution state biomolecular NMR research. We expect to take delivery of the new magnet by April 2020 and for it to be operational in the summer of 2020. Free Wellcome-Trust supported access to UK users!
The Wellcome Trust has funded 5 years of free access to the 800 and 900 MHz spectrometers for UK-based users involved in biomedical research from 2018. The award includes a welcome 800 MHz spectrometer upgrade. Please email Dr Sara Whittaker for access.
