Spin Dynamics lecture course
Spin Dynamics is a graduate level lecture course aimed at physicists and chemists working in the area of magnetic resonance spectroscopy or using NMR and EPR as part of their research. Term I will provide the general physical and mathematical background of magnetic resonance, as well as an introduction to data processing and spin system analysis. Terms II and III will focus specifically on theoretical and computational aspects of spin dynamics.

Computational Quantum Chemistry courseComputational Quantum Chemistry is a graduate level course aimed at chemists, physicists and biologists who wish to acquire practical skills of performing ab initio, DFT and molecular dynamics simulations of realistic systems using modern software and state-of-the-art supercomputer hardware. The lectures provide basic theoretical background and focus on providing practical recipes for the calculation of commonly encountered physical and chemical properties. The hands-on classes will take place at the Oxford Supercomputing Centre.
