Lawrence Alemany
Lecturer of Chemistry
Research Statement
Dr. Lawrence Alemany manages the chemistry NMR facility under the Shared Equipment Authority. He continues to collaborate with various research groups extensively using NMR, explore the utility of new developments in NMR for such research, and do a little research on his own. This year, Dr. Alemany led a major effort that upgraded the facility's computers and software.
