Session 17: Advances in biological magnetic resonance

Updated: 2024-07-22

Biological magnetic resonance is a technology that utilizes the phenomenon of magnetic resonance to study the molecular structure, dynamic properties and functions of biological systems. It includes biological nuclear magnetic resonance, paramagnetic resonance and magnetic resonance imaging.

Biological magnetic resonance technology not only helps the general public understand the molecular basis of life processes in basic scientific research, it also provides crucial diagnostic information in clinical medical practice. It serves as a bridge connecting disciplines such as biophysics, chemistry and medicine.

The session on advances in biological magnetic resonance will feature domestic and international experts, scholars and graduate students, who will deliver thematic reports and engage in academic discussions.

The session will deal primarily with the development of biological magnetic resonance technology and methods in the context of multidisciplinary integration, with a particular focus on structural biology approaches that integrate nuclear magnetic resonance with other biophysical techniques, as well as novel nuclear magnetic probes and computational methods for studying the structure and dynamics of biomolecules such as proteins and nucleic acids. It will also explore the role of AI technology in assisting and advancing research in the field of biological magnetic resonance.

The session will also discuss research on applications of biological magnetic resonance technology in life sciences and medicine, especially the latest advancements in areas such as membrane and cell surface proteins, cellular in situ environmental proteins, drug and biomacromolecular interactions and medical magnetic resonance imaging.
