www. utp.edu.my A 2-day short course on NMR Spectroscopy Organized By: Centre of Research in Ionic Liquids (CORIL), Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS 18th -19th May 2015 8.30 am - 5.00 pm Seminar Room 2, Undercroft, Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS COURSE OUTLINE Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy, (NMR) studies the physical, chemical and biological properties of a matter. This technique works on a basis of the difference produced when a nuclei absorbs and re-emits radiation when exposed to a magnetic field. The versatility of NMR makes it an essential tool in an array of fields’ including chemistry, biology, physics and medicine. This course will cover; Day 2 Day 1 • NMR Analysis Optimization • NMR Spectrometer components & function • Data Processing • Principal of NMR • Application of NMR in Ionic Liquids • Hypothetical sample & real samples • ID and 2D NMR experiments OBJECTIVES Upon completion of this 2-day course, participants will be able to; • understand the underlying mechanism behind the operations of NMR spectroscopy • comprehend the practical aspects of NMR Spectroscopy sample preparation • utilize a wide variety of NMR analysis to aid in their respective research areas. • identify the applications of NMR in ionic liquids. WHO SHOULD ATTEND? Researchers, Research Officers/Assistants, Lab Technicians, Undergraduate/Postgraduate students. HOW TO APPLY? The scanned copy of the completed registration form along with proof of payment or a letter of undertaking should be sent via email on or before 11th May 2015 to [email protected] Note: Seats are limited.

COURSE INSTRUCTORS Dr Chin-Hoe Teh obtained his PhD in Pharmaceutical Chemistry from University of Sains Malaysia in 2011. In 2011, he joined Bruker Malaysia as a NMR Application Scientist. His NMR application interests includes natural products-NMR spectroscopy, metabolomics, quantitative NMR and fast NMR techniques. Chin-Hoe has published several scientific articles in tier-one ISI scientific journals, and has been invited as a speaker in national conferences. He has received some awards during his BSc and PhD study from University of Malaya and University of Sains Malaysia, respectively. The awards from University Malaya include Ajax Chemical Book Prize 2002 (for the best student in Chemistry), University Book Prize (2002), and Member of Dean Lists for five out of six semesters (1999 2002). Meanwhile, he has been awarded Anugerah Sanggar Sanjung- Journal Publication Category (2009-2012) by USM.
