Future

Prediction is very difficult, especially about the future: Niels Bohr

Improvement in hardware (higher fields, better probes)


and software (automation)

Increase in sensitivity: DNP, PHIP, CIDNP

Dynamics
Integration with other techniques:
Solid State NMR, EPR
Electron microscopy,
X-ray: diffraction, scattering (SAXS, WAXS)
Fluorescence
Molecular Dynamics
Qantum mechanics/Molecular Dynamics (QM/MM)

The battle is in the wetlab: intelligent labeling techniques

Richard is becoming 80 this year! Kurt


becomes 75 this year!

So hurry up!
Good luck!
