A facility that uses a state-of-the-art NMR spectrometer to verify or determine the structure of organic molecules. Housed in the Department of Physiology and Pharmacology, it is designed to exploit the power of designed small molecules as probes of protein and cellular function and to provide the foundation for the development of prototypic therapeutic agents.
