Lewis E. Kay Laboratory at @UofT | Using solution NMR to study supra-molecular biomolecules & rare states | Student/Postdoc Maintained
University of Toronto
Joined January 2022
Had a little celebration yesterday for Lewis in honor of his 500th academic publication! The poster contains the first page of all 500 papers, and his face is made of their figures. Lewis wants to thank all his amazing trainees over the years for making it possible! #NMRchat
