Brijith Thomas holds a Ph.D. degree from Leiden University in the Netherlands, focusing on the development of novel methodologies in NMR crystallography to solve supramolecular structures of molecules used in artificial photosynthesis. After obtaining his Ph.D., he joined Aaron Rossini’s group at Ames Laboratory in Iowa, USA, to explore the latest state-of-the-art Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP) SSNMR. He then moved to the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel with Michal Leskes to gain expertise in endogenous metal ion DNP. His research interests encompass methodology development in NMR crystallography incorporating DNP SSNMR, electron diffraction data spectroscopic, XRD, and DFT calculations. His methodologies are applicable across a range of materials, including metal-organic frameworks, covalent organic frameworks, catalysts, supramolecules, and inorganic oxides, leading to widespread potential applications. Thomas has presented his work at numerous international conferences and has a strong publication record in high-impact journals like the Journal of the American Chemical Society, Angewandte Chemie, and Chemistry Materials.
