Magnetic Resonance Webinar on September 20 — 5 Talks in One Go!

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is often perceived as complex, abstract, and difficult to grasp. Compounding this is the fact that its many application areas — such as life sciences, petroleum exploration, imaging, and teaching — have limited cross-communication. As a result, many users report only a partial understanding of low-field NMR technology.

In response, Niumag has invited five leading professors and experts from diverse fields to host a special online webinar series. These public lectures — hosted on the Instrument.com.cn webinar platform — focus on the applications and future potential of low-field NMR, linking each speaker’s research expertise to real-world use cases. Topics span from core principles to novel applications, providing both depth and practicality. The goal: to better serve researchers by helping them understand how low-field NMR can directly enhance their work.
