Special issue of the Journal of Magnetic Resonance

Volume 213, Issue 2, Pages 213-574 (December 2011)

Magnetic Moments, Groundbreaking papers from the pages of the Journal of Magnetic Resonance - and recollections from the scientists behind them.

http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/journal/10907807/213/2

To celebrate the 2011 International Year of Chemistry JMR has assembled a collection of reprints of some of the most significant papers published in the journal since its inception over 40 years ago. These reprints are accompanied by video/audio commentaries by their authors giving a rare "behind the scene" glimpse into magnetic resonance research.

These videos are also available on YouTube

CSC 2012 Call for Papers Open

The 95th Canadian Chemistry Conference and Exhibition (CSC2012) will be held in Calgary, Alberta, May 25-30, 2012. This is Canada's largest annual conference devoted to the science and practice of chemistry. This year's conference theme is Energizing Chemistry.

The Call for Papers opened today December 1, 2011 and will close February 15, 2012. Submit your abstract through Hermes Conference Centre via the CSC2012 website. Details are available at http://www.csc2012.ca/2_program/submit_abstract.html


The conference plenary lecturer is Prof. Paul Alivisatos, Director of the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory at UC Berkeley. You can view the wide range of symposia representing the "Energizing Chemistry" theme on the CSC2012 website at http://www.csc2012.ca

[VT: for NMR folks, Division of Physical, Theoretical and Computational Chemistry, "Solid-State NMR" Symposium, Organizer: R. Wasylishen, University of Alberta]

We encourage you to forward this notice to your network of colleagues nationally and internationally, to submit your abstracts and to join us in Calgary next May.
