Research interests |
Shu Han, PhD student ( hanshu211@gmail.com )
Msc Electronic Engineering, Peking university, 2011 Research Interests: I am using NMR techniques to investigate the orientation and structure of whelk egg capsule, and prove/disprove the hypothesis that whelk egg capsule undergoes reversible alpha-helix to beta-sheet transition during extension. Other Interests: I like all kinds of music and movies, and soccer is my favorite sport, enjoy hiking with friends. |
Alan Manning, MSc student ( mannin2@phas.ubc.ca )
BSc Physics, Carleton University, 2011 Research Interests: I am using a variety of solution and solid-state NMR techniques to characterize a new material made by the MacLachlan group at UBC chemistry. This material is a mesoporous glass and is interesting due to the chiral nematic structure of the pores. Possible uses for this glass include temperature/concentration-dependent sensors and enantioselective filters. NMR allows us to probe the behaviour of absorbed liquids and liquid crystals, assisting the development of novel applications of this material. Other Interests: Outside the lab, I enjoy sailing, biking, swimming, having a brew or two with friends, and kicking back with a history book. |
