About us
The NMR Expertise Centre is a centre of expertise for structure characterisation and molecular analysis in chemical, biochemical, biomedical and materials sciences
Our mission
The goal of the NMR Expertise Centre is to make the NMR infrastructure and knowledge accessible to the entire UGent Research Community and beyond. The figure below provides a number of research areas and specific studies were NMR has played a central role in providing crucial information. The areas highlighted here are non exhaustive and include only a few examples.
UGent and external researchers can collaborate with the NMR EC in an interdisciplinary fashion in a wide variety of research domains.

Collaborating research groups
NMR and Structure Analysis Research Group (NMRSTR)
NMRSTR is the original NMR research group at the UGent under the guidance of Prof. José C. Martins. The group retains a close collaboration with the expertise centre and is involved in the overall scientific support and NMR method development.
Centre of Macromolecular Chemistry (CMAC)
The Centre of Macromolecular Chemistry comprises the three polymer oriented research groups at Ghent University, including Polymer Chemistry Research Group (PCR), Polymer Chemistry and Biomaterials Group (PBM) and Supramolecular Chemistry (SC).
Physics and Chemistry of Nanostructures Group (PCN)
The PCN group focuses on colloidal nanocrystals, an ideal starting point for multidisciplinary science where chemical synthesis and processing techniques are combined with the characterization and application of physical properties.
