NSF-MRI Acquisition of a 600 MHz NMR with a Cryoprobe

这项重大研究仪器奖资助了一台带冷冻探针的600 MHz 4通道NMR仪器的收购。新的光谱仪将被安置在斯托尼布鲁克大学核磁共振中心，并将作为一个用户运行的仪器收费服务的基础上。 新仪器支持的项目范围从化学生物学到蛋白质折叠、蛋白质动力学、DNA结构研究、新型富碳分子的表征和新型聚合物的设计。 因此，新的NMR是化学生物学，结构生物学和材料科学的大学范围内的努力的重要资源。研究生和博士后研究员在研究过程中使用NMR。因此，光谱仪还支持下一代研究人员在现代最先进的NMR方法的培训。 此外，斯托尼布鲁克在包括本科生参与研究方面格外积极。项目WISE的参与者，一个大学范围内的倡议，旨在支持和指导本科妇女在科学利用核磁共振，在一系列其他推广计划。 这些研究和教学工作的结果将通过摘要和同行评议的出版物，以及学生和教师在专业会议的积极参与广泛传播。

This Major Research Instrumentation award funds the acquisition of a 600 MHz 4-channel NMR instrument with a cryoprobe. The new spectrometer will be housed in the Stony Brook University NMR center and will be operated as a user run instrument on a fee for service basis. Projects supported by the new instrument span the range from chemical biology to protein folding, protein dynamics, studies of DNA structure, the characterization of novel carbon rich molecules and the design of novel polymers. The new NMR is thus an essential resource for university-wide efforts in Chemical Biology, Structural Biology, and Materials Science. Graduate students and postdoctoral fellows use the NMR during the course of their research. Thus, the spectrometer also supports the training of the next generation of researchers in modern state-of-the-art NMR methods. Furthermore, Stony Brook is exceptionally aggressive about including undergraduates in research. Participants in Project WISE, a university wide initiative designed to support and mentor undergraduate women in science utilize the NMR, amongst a range of other outreach programs. The results of these research and teaching efforts will be broadly disseminated through abstracts and peer reviewed publications, as well as by active participation of students and faculty at professional meetings.
