...invention of a handheld nuclear magnetic resonance system, which may profoundly affect doctors’ ability to screen patients for ailments ranging from cancer to viruses. The single-silicon-chip device is not only smaller but less expensive than the machines that are being used today for NMR testing. Ham, who has known about the appointment since May, wrote in an e-mailed statement yesterday that his new post will allow him to conduct more adventurous research but will not lessen his commitment to his students. This fall, Ham will teach Engineering Sciences 154: Electronic Devices and Circuits, a course...
...said, here's the shape I want to make, tell us the sequence,'' he recalls. By the end of the day, the computer gave him billions of possible amino acid combinations and recommended the best one. Dahiyat threw that sequence into a small, tunnel-like device called an NMR spectrometer. About a minute later, Dahiyat noticed that the V-shaped protein was indeed falling into place. "I could see it wasn't spaghetti. I said, 'Oh my God, we've got structure!'" Thus was born a protein-creation process that Dahiyat calls Protein Design Automation (PDA) and that became...
Huang’s thesis, titled “Signal Interferences from Turbulent Spin Dynamics in Solution NMR,” may improve imaging and spectroscopic methods in nuclear magnetic resonance and tissue magnetic resonance imaging, possibly enhancing the ability of clinicians to diagnose disease...
