Sir Peter Mansfield - Autobiography 2004
This explanation belied the fact that Lauterbur was one of the foremost specialists in NMR spectroscopy.
The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 2003 - Perspectives 2003
The advantage of NMR is that proteins can be studied in solution, i.e. an environment similar to that in the living cell.
Press Release: The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2002 2002
The perhaps most important industrial use of NMR is in the search for small potential pharmaceutical molecules that can interact with a given biological macromolecule.
Information for the Public - The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2002 2002
NMR is one of the chemist's best methods for examining molecules, and it has been used extensively for small molecules since the mid-20th century.
The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2002 - Presentation Speech 2002
A particular strength of NMR is its ability to demonstrate unstructured and very mobile parts of a molecule.
Information for the Public - The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2002 2002
NMR is used in the pharmaceutical industry for determining the structure of proteins and other macromolecules that can be of interest as target molecules for new drugs.
The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2002 2002
NMR is also used in the pharmaceuticals industry to determine the structure, and hence the properties, of proteins and other macromolecules that can be interesting target molecules for new pharmaceuticals.
Information for the Public - The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2002 2002
One of the fine points of NMR is that it enables us to see individual signals, for example, from each hydrogen nucleus in a molecule.
The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2002 - Presentation Speech 2002
A later revolutionary development in NMR , in which this year's Chemistry Laureate played a leading role, was the introduction of more than one frequency dimension, 2, 3 or higher.
