Prof. Acosta Receives Prestigious NSF CAREER Award
May 4, 2020
Professor Victor Acosta has received an NSF CAREER Award for a project entitled “CAREER: Picoliter Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy with Diamond Quantum Sensors”. His technique uses defects in diamond, known as “Nitrogen-Vacancy centers”, as quantum sensors that can improve NMR spectroscopy. It promises to lead to improvements in measuring the molecular make-up of biological samples with single-cell resolution.
