Testimonials

Anne Baudouin, Responsable du Centre Commun de RMN

CCRNM, Villeurbanne, France

We joined Connexus because we believe it's a great idea to connect NMR experts. Through this platform, we provide access to our numerous spectrometers and probes via our NMR analysis services, gain visibility, and make valuable connections. In addition, Connexus offers us exciting opportunities to collaborate with both academic and industrial laboratories.

Dr. Marc Vitorino, Head of NMR

NovAliX, Strasbourg, France

I am a structural biologist by training who chose early in his career to join the industry and the field of early drug discovery.

After completing my Ph.D. in France, I moved to Cambridge as a research associate in the biophysics group of Dr. Glyn Williams at Astex Therapeutics, where I specialized in applying the technique of liquid-state NMR spectroscopy to identify new fragments, that could potentially lead to new approved drugs on the market.  

At NovAliX, as head of the NMR platform within the biophysics group of Dr. Renaud Morales, I am mainly interested in applying the technique of liquid-state NMR spectroscopy with fragment libraries to study different therapeutical target proteins, identify new binding molecules and characterise the interaction between the fragment and the protein of interest. To help our customers initiate their early drug discovery programs, I work on developing methods to make the liquid-state NMR technique more applicable. 

Dr. Markus Kroll, Head of PhysChem & NMR
Nuvisan, Berlin, Germany

We are happy to be part of the Connexus platform right from the start. Nuvisan is one of the first adopters of this service and we look forward to a fruitful collaboration. In our Life Science Chemistry Services unit at Nuvisan Innovation Campus Berlin GmbH we offer services on our NMR machines with up to 600 MHz with cryo-probe. With our SampleJets and sample organizers we offer fast services and further analytical investigations with short turnaround times. Our experienced Structure Service unit provides extensive structure elucidations and validations, including temperature-based measurements. In close collaboration with our structural biology unit, we offer fragment-based screenings using, for example, STD-NMR.
