Shanmin Zhang, Ph.D.

My research interests are in the development of new NMR excitation methods for selective excitation or decoupling which can improve the quality of 2D and 3D NMR experiments. Below you'll find a list of my recent publications and to the left you'll find additional UTMB web sites that may be of interest to you. The NMR facility is located in the Dockside Building (building 73 on the campus map) and contains Varian Unity+ 600 and 750 MHZ magnets. A new Varian Inova 800 MHz magnet was delivered in Feb 2005 and will be operational shortly. Thank you for your interest in my research at UTMB.

Sincerely,

Shanmin Zhang, Ph.D.
