I returned to the UK for my higher education, starting with aMSci in chemistry and molecular physics at the University of Nottingham. My interests were initially rather spread, including laser spectroscopy and mass spectrometry, and it wasn\u2019t until my final year that I gave NMR the consideration it deserved. I stayed on at Nottingham to do a PhD. in solid-state NMR with Dr Jeremy Titman; the main focus of my work involved developing new dipole-dipole recoupling sequences for half-integer quadrupolar nuclei, as well as working on an assignment procedure for small molecules using CSA measurements and CASTEP DFT calculations. After my PhD, I did some copy-editing for the European Physical Journal for a while, and then joined the pNMR network early in 2014.<\/span><\/p>\n<table class=\"padded-table\" border=\"2\" width=\"840\">\n<tbody style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<tr style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<td style=\"background-color: #585858; width: 120px; color: #ffffff; text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-family: Questrial,sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"><strong> Home Country<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding-left: 27px; text-align: left; background-color: #ffffff; width: 400px;\"><span style=\"font-family: Questrial,sans-serif; font-size: medium;\">United Kingdom<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<td style=\"background-color: #585858; width: 120px; color: #ffffff; text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium; font-family: Questrial,sans-serif;\"><strong> Project Topic<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding-left: 27px; text-align: left; background-color: #ffffff; width: 400px;\"><span style=\"font-family: Questrial,sans-serif; font-size: medium;\">New tools for paramagnetic NMR<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<td style=\"background-color: #585858; width: 120px; color: #ffffff; text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-family: Questrial,sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"><strong> Project<\/strong><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Questrial,sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"><strong> Description<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding-left: 27px; text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; width: 400px;\">The main aim of this project is the characterisation of new hardware relevant to the NMR of paramagnetic samples, as well as the development and testing of appropriate pulse sequences. This will be achieved in strong cooperation with academia, including testing new equipment with real-world samples.<br \/>\nAdditionally, we also intend to work on the simulation and automated interpretation of experimental data. In particular, the ease with which simulations can be set up and used for evaluation is to be improved. To this end NMR relevant simulation tools such as SIMPSON will be investigated and prepared for routine workflow.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<td style=\"background-color: #585858;
