Congratulations to Hanming for being the co-recipient of the 2021 K.V. Reddy Award in Physical Chemistry for his work in Laser- and LED-enhanced NMR spectroscopy method development. Nice achievement, Hanming! 
Hanming’s latest paper on the increase in nuclear hyperpolarization enhancement upon additon of trace amounts of reductive radical quenchers (like vitamin C) to NMR samples has been chosen by the Journal of Magnetic Resonance for their March 2021 cover. This study is important because it enables long-term NMR 1D and 2D data collection on biomolecules at sub-micromolear concentration, paving the way to their study in extremely dilute cell-like environments. Hanming’s work leads to increases in nuclear magnetic resonance sensitivity for the detection of aromatic compounds by up to 100% in liquids, relative to reference hyperpolarization experiments lacking reductive radical quenchers. Congratulations, Hanming, cool discovery!!!
