In this interview conducted at Pittcon 2023 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, we spoke to this year's recipient of the Pittsburgh Spectroscopy Award, Robert Tycko.
The application of solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) in biology is explored in this interview. Specifically, how the technique is used to study the molecular structure of amyloid fibrils, which are filamentous assemblies of specific proteins and peptides that contribute to the neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease.
