Master Thesis - Spin Dynamics for NMR Hyperpolarization

If you are interested in creative problem solving at the interface between chemistry and physics, with the chance to mix hands-on experimental work with theory+simulations, this opportunity may be for you. The function of every cell and organism depends critically on the dynamic interactions between biological macromolecules and on their correct three-dimensional structure. Faulty interactions and misfolded structures lead to disease and aging. In our

Institute of Biological Information Processing (IBI) - Structual Biochemistry (IBI-7)

, research aims to understand these interactions and to determine the three-dimensional structure of protein complexes involved in crucial cellular processes. The Hyperpolarization Methods research group working at IBI-7 is open for applications for a Masters thesis project in the field of nuclear spin dynamics. We use a method called parahydrogen-induced polarization...
