TEACHING HIGH-RESOLUTION NUCLEAR-MAGNETIC-RESONANCE TO GRADUATE-STUDENTS IN BIOPHYSICS

Teaching modem methods of high resolution, multi-dimensional nuclear m agnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy in the limited time usually avail able is a challenge because of the breadth and complexity of the subje ct. Here we present two outlines for lectures on basic principles and biophysical applications of NMR, either in one lecture or in six to tw elve lectures. We advocate emphasizing the versatility of NMR, and its numerous applications to biophysical questions. An annotated list of references is provided.
