CAREER: New Approaches in Solid-State NMR of Novel Paramagnetic Complex and Peptide Nano-Assembly

在该项目中，由化学部实验物理化学计划资助，伊利诺伊大学芝加哥分校的Yoshitaka石井教授将开发固态核磁共振（NMR）方法来研究顺磁性金属有机络合物和肽纳米组装体。 这些实验的最终目标是开发出用于阐明这些普遍存在的材料的原子级和超分子结构的有用工具。石井教授将把现代NMR方法，包括多维，生物分子和先进的固态方法，纳入本科和研究生课程。 此外，石井教授还将启动一项国际合作交流计划，让他所在大学的本科生与日本的合作机构合作。

In this project, funded by the Experimental Physical Chemistry Program of the Chemistry Division, Prof. Yoshitaka Ishii of the University of Illinois at Chicago will develop solid state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) methods to study paramagnetic-metal organic complexes and peptide nano-assemblies. The ultimate goal of these experiments is to develop useful tools for elucidating the structures, both atomic-level and supramolecular, of these types of ubiquitous materials.Prof. Ishii will incorporate modern NMR methods, including multidimensional, biomolecular, and advanced solid-state methods and into the undergraduate and graduate curriculum. In addition, Prof. Ishii will launch an international cooperative exchange program involving undergraduate students from his university with partner institutions in Japan.
