Symposium on "NMR Spectroscopy of Polymers"
ACS National Meeting, New Orleans, March 2003
At the ACS National Meeting on March 23-27, 2003, we successfully organized an international symposium featuring the latest developments in the NMR studies of polymers and biopolymers.  Equal emphasis was placed on solid state NMR and solution NMR, and on fundamental research as well as industrially important problems.  It was sponsored by the ACS Polymer Chemistry Division.

Approximately 90 leaders and active practitioners of polymer NMR presented their work.  The preprints of their papers can be found in ACS Polymer Preprints, Volume 44, Part 1, 2003.

For your information, the program and the symposium contributors are given in the following pages.
