Project description
 

This project aims at developping and applying diffusion NMR spectroscopy as research tool for in situ characterisation of colloidal dispersions of nanoparticles and quantum semi-conductors. It also will initiate the integrated spectroscopic and imaging based magnetic resonance analyses of metabolic and physiologic profile of neuropathologies in selected animal models.
