<p>The National Science Foundation has awarded the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory an $11.7-million grant for construction of an innovative magnet that will have the potential to revolutionize a technique used to learn more about little-understood molecules.</p>

<p>The magnet—which will generate extremely high magnetic fields using just one-third the power of traditional "all-resistive" magnets—will enable unique experiments to be conducted at the Florida State University facility. It will be used primarily for nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to study proteins, nucleic acids, catalysts, conductors and semiconductors.</p>

<p>P2N, the FSU Board of Trustees should put you on the payroll. LOL</p>

<p>I feel the same way...not really. :)</p>

<p>It just seemed that Florida State was a bit overlooked...well, at least the academics were.</p>
