Conclusions

In the past two decades solid state NMR has exploded from its humble beginnings into a formidable methodology with enormous potential and flexibility. With giant leaps continuing to be made in both hardware and computational aspects of the technique as well as continual development of increasingly complex pulse sequences, solid state NMR will continue to provide a unique insight into the structure and behaviour of important biological molecules and their association with cell membranes.
