New Trends of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (NMR) in Chemical and Biomolecular Studies

Dear Colleagues,

NMR spectroscopy has evolved significantly over many years, and recent advancements have introduced exciting possibilities for chemical and biomolecular research. Understanding these new trends is crucial for staying at the forefront of structural analysis and metabolomic/pharmaceutical studies. We demonstrate the latest achievements in NMR spectroscopy, specifically applications that may revolutionize scientific research on biomolecular systems. We are interested in introducing the newest NMR techniques, including dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP-NMR), and solid-state NMR. We plan to explore how NMR spectroscopy is employed in metabolomics, drug discovery, and pharmaceutical research. We will highlight NMR applications, such as intrinsically disordered proteins, protein–ligand interactions, and membrane proteins. We will discuss the challenges in NMR-based research and speculate on future directions and innovations that may shape the field in the coming years. By understanding and embracing these trends, we aim to present knowledge required to advance structural analysis and metabolomic/pharmaceutical research. This Special Issue will be a valuable resource for up-to-date developments in NMR and their applications.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Molecules is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
