Make MR more relevant

Drug Discovery Research
 

NMR is a powerful tool in drug discovery. NMR provides many advantages over other methods, such as the ability to directly observe chemical compounds and target biomolecules, and to be used for ligand-based and protein-based approaches

The Biomedical Solid-State NMR group at Utrecht University uses advanced solid-state NMR methods to study antibiotics in medically relevant conditions.

Group Leader Dr. Markus Weingarth gives an insight about their research

It is about understanding how exactly an antibiotic binds a specific target in the bacterial cell membrane. The understanding of how antibiotics target a specific bacterial lipid gives crucial information for how to improve these antibiotics and to break bacterial resistance in order to make better drugs that cure people.

Steven Brown is a Professor at the Department of Physics at the University of Warwick.

His main focus is using Solid State NMR for the development of high-resolution methods (especially 1H) using dipolar and J couplings with the 1.0 GHz.
