Piotr Garbacz
Head of the Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Laboratory at the Faculty of Chemistry at the University of Warsaw. He graduated in chemistry from the University of Warsaw in 2014. From 2012 to 2015, he completed internships at the University of Western Sydney, the University of Alberta in Edmonton, and the postdoctoral fellowship in the Max Planck Institute of Intelligent Systems in Stuttgart and Laboratoire National des Champs Magnétiques Intenses in Grenoble. His works in the field of chirality-sensitive NMR were awarded a habilitation degree in 2018.

Elżbieta Megiel
Elżbieta Megiel received her MSc degree at the University of Warsaw Faculty of Chemistry in 1994 under the supervision of prof. Teresa Kasprzyckiej-Guttman, thesis entitled: „The enthalpies of mixing for binary systems pyridine base + o-xylene”. Further, she continued research on the thermodynamics of non-electrolytes and started studies on applying theoretical approaches (quantum-mechanical calculations and molecular dynamic simulations) for analyzing intermolecular interactions. PhD thesis presented results of this research she defended in 1999. Later, the investigation of Dr Megiel was focused on various aspects of polymer chemistry, both theoretical and experimental, including mechanisms of radical polymerization and new techniques allowing to obtain narrow-dispersive macromolecules. Her scientific interests were also stable nitroxyl radicals and their application in polymer chemistry, nanotechnology, and spectroscopy. Dr Megiel completed her habilitation entitled “Nitroxides in the preparation of functional nanomaterials” in 2018; three years later, she obtained the position of associate professor at the University of Warsaw, Faculty of Chemistry.
Włodziemierz Makulski
Senior lecturer at the Faculty of Chemistry of Warsaw University. For the last twenty-five years, he has been involved in carrying out projects on NMR spectroscopy completed in the gas phase by measuring the spectra of 1H, 2H, 3He, 10B, 11B, 13C, 14N, 15N, 17O, 19F, 29Si, 31P, 33S, 35/37Cl, 73Ge, 83Kr, 117/119Sn, 129/131Xe, 183W, and 207Pb nuclei. The focus of recent investigations has been to establish the absolute shielding scales of different nuclei and to very accurately measure their nuclear magnetic dipole moments.

Marcin Wilczek
M.W. is providing interfaculty NMR service focused on the measurements aiming at determination, confirmation of the structure, and dynamics of molecules in the liquid state. The scope of his measurements covers two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy such as COSY, HSQC, HMBC, NOSY as well as translation diffusion.
Bożena Adrjan
B.A. is a former member of the group who was involved in interfaculty service and NMR measurements aiming at the determination and confirmation of the structure of organic and inorganic compounds in the liquid state.
Artur Brzezicki
A.B. is a PhD student taking part in a national program of implementation of NMR techniques for studies of chiral active pharmacological ingredients of medicines. The goal of A.B.'s thesis is to provide the experimental tools and quantum chemical methods that may be used in industry.
Mateusz Słowiński
M.S. is a PhD student at the Doctoral School at the University of Warsaw. His thesis is devoted to studies of the chirality-sensitive effects induced by the spin-spin interaction and focused on the molecular dynamics computations of the polar molecules subjected to the influence of the electromagnetic field.
