Annoucement of New CCIC Associate Director-NMR

It is my pleasure to announce that Dr. Tapas Mal will assume the position of associate director CCIC/NMR effective April 10, 2012. Dr. Mal comes to us from Pfizer Pharmaceutical Corporation where he was manager for protein NMR facility. Prior to his role at Pfizer, Dr. Mal served as director of the NMR Core at the Ontario Cancer Research Institute in Toronto.

Dr. Mal comes to us with extensive technical and managerial expertise in NMR spectroscopy, and his work spans a broad range of applications including biomolecular structure small molecule analysis, drug-protein interactions, and metabolomics. Over the next several weeks, Dr. Mal will be meeting with the CCIC/NMR UAC and individual members of the NMR community to establish priorities for revitalizing the NMR spectroscopy program in the CCIC.

Please join me in welcoming Tapas to Ohio State and the Campus Chemical Instrument Center.

Director of Campus Chemical Instrument Center

About the Center:

The Campus Chemical Instrument Center (CCIC) was founded in 1981 as a unit of the Office of Research. The mission of the CCIC is to provide state-of-the-art research facilities for the entire campus in three areas: Nuclear Magnetic Resonance, Mass Spectrometry and Proteomics. Since the NMR, MS and Proteomics Facilities are central hubs for the Ohio NMR and Ohio MS Consortiums, respectively, all researchers in the colleges and universities of the State of Ohio have access to all facilities of the CCIC with the same user fees.

The OSU Office of Research provides personnel support of the CCIC. Equipment funding has been provided by Ohio Board of Regents, National Institutes of Health, National Science Foundation, and Office of Research.
