Research Interests(Full Synopsis)
Current research interests of
the Goodson Group include: molecular structure, dynamics,
and interactions-particularly involving proteins, protein
complexes, and inclusion compounds; optical / nuclear double
resonance; highly spin-polarized systems; sensitivity and
contrast enhancement in NMR and MRI; novel exogenous MRI contrast
agents; NMR of laser-polarized noble gases; liquid crystals;
organic crystals; biomolecular and polymer thin films; time-resolved
spectroscopies and methods; spin-spin interactions; quantum
computation.
