Andrew J. M. Kiruluta
Assistant Professor of RadiologyPhD 1997, Toronto/Cambridge
An understanding of quantum coherence and symmetry is crucial to the development and application of modern pulsed magnetic resonance spectroscopy and optical pumping in solid state physics as well as imaging.
General goals of research for Professor Kiruluta and his group are the development of novel theory and experiments in NMR spectroscopy, with applications to fundamental problems in physics, chemistry, materials science, biomedicine, and microanalytical techniques as well as imaging. Current research topics include high resolution solid-state NMR, multiple-quantum spatial-spectral holographic spectroscopy, and optically pumped as well RF pumped spin masers in an NMR resonant cavity.
