In the context of a collaboration between RS2D and Professor Serge Akoka’s group, new electronics have been installed on one of the 400 MHz spectrometers of the CEISAM NMR platform. This equipment (a Quad-C4 console), equipped with a 19F lock, will be dedicated to methodological developments in high precision quantitative NMR and in particular to...
Following an evaluation process conducted by AFNOR, the CEISAM NMR platform has obtained the ISO 9001 certification for its activity in the “Development and services in the field of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance”. This certification marks a commitment towards a continuous improvement approach in the service of its users. It is a recognition of the involvement...
“An introduction to NMR” is intended for scientific students (bachelor or master, Chemistry and Biology in particular), but also for medical and pharmacy students as well as non-specialist researchers. The content includes a phenomenological approach to the principles and various applications of NMR. The book includes many illustrations and analogies; the equations are there but...
The Analytics 2022 conference took place in Nantes in September. Several CEISAM members have actively participated in its organization and its success, as members of the Organizing Committee, volunteers or speakers. The congress, co-organized by the Francophone Network of Metabolomics and Fluxomics, the French Society of Proteomics, the French Society of Mass Spectrometry and the...
In partnership with Service National de Police Scientifique (SNPS) in Lyon, Chemistry And Interdisciplinarity: Synthesis Analysis Modeling (CEISAM) laboratory proposes a novel method using compact Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy combined with multi-method databases to identify and also, for the first time, to elucidate the composition of drugs seized by the Police. Less expensive, more...
ATTOP« ATTOsecond Photochemistry: controlling chemical reactions with electrons » Background and research: After studying chemistry at the École Normale Supérieure (ENS) in Cachan, Morgane Vacher moved to London in 2012 to complete a PhD degree in theoretical chemistry with Mike Robb and Mike Bearpark at Imperial College. Her thesis work focused on the new attosecond science and...
The CEISAM Institute in Nantes (France) invites applications for a CNRS junior Professor position (tenure track) in experimental molecular chemistry. This position targets disruptive aspects of analytical, organic, and/or physical chemistry. Candidates will propose a research project that transcends the frontiers within the disciplines of molecular chemistry. Possible research areas include operando analysis, “digital” chemistry, and/or automated synthesis. The CEISAM Institute (https://ceisam.univ-nantes.fr/en/) encompasses all the molecular chemistry research activities in Nantes University...
The project “Remote NMR (R-NMR): moving NMR infrastructures to remote access capabilities” aims at establishing common and standardised practice for remote access to NMR facilities in Europe. The MIMM team and the CEISAM NMR platform will contribute to exchanges on the topic of remote access, leading to a broader and greener access to NMR in...
Astatine (At) is the rarest chemical element on Earth, and its 211 isotope is very promising for applications in targeted radiotherapy of cancers. Progress in this approach depends on a better understanding of the chemistry of At. Researchers from the CRCINA, Subatech and CEISAM laboratories have published a 15-year review of their work in the...
Morgane Vacher, researcher at CEISAM, has been nominated to be a member of the first Early Career Advisory Board of the Journal of American Chemical Society Au. The American Chemical Society (ACS) has recently launched a new type of open access journal, the Journal of American Chemical Society (JACS) Au. The latter reports significant research...
