Eli Bendet-Taicher is a fifth-year graduate student working in Professor Alexej Jerschow's laboratory at New York University. He is anticipated to graduate in the fall of 2013. Eli has worked on a diverse set of innovative projects involving spin-noise measurements using nuclear magnetic resonance that could enhance protein NMR spectroscopy sensitivity by up to 30%. Eli has also designed experiments involving traveling-wave NMR methodology and miniaturizing radio-frequency coils. Professor Jerschow highly recommends Eli and expects his dissertation to have a strong impact in several fields based on his self-driven work ethic and acquisition of diverse skills applicable to developing new applications.
