Come to the Practical NMR Spectroscopy course at Pittcon!

Damodaran will be presenting a short course on Sat Mar 16 from 8"30-5 at Pittcon 2019 in Philadelphia.  From the conference:

Practical NMR Spectroscopy
SC005
8:30am - 5:00pm
 
Sat, Mar 16


In this course, you will learn the fundamentals of NMR spectroscopy that will help you better understand commonly used and advanced 1D and 2D NMR experiments, both in routine analytical work and in scientific research. Emphasis will be given on practical aspects of NMR spectroscopy. You will also learn the tips and tricks to obtain the best out of your spectrometer. Overall, this course will prepare you to engage the NMR spectrometer and run experiments with confidence.
