We are an experimental physical chemistry research group located in the Department of Chemistry at University of Virginia. Our group uses nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to characterize structure and dynamics in materials, which enables the development of structure-property relationships. We develop solid-state NMR spectroscopy to perform atomic-level characterization of molecules and materials critical for sustainable chemistry, catalysis and pharmaceutical sciences.
We are a part of the UVA Catalysis Initiative for Clean Energy and Chemicals, which is supported by the UVA Grand Challenges Initiative.

- Graduate students admitted to the UVA Chemistry graduate program are encouraged to reach out.
- Undergraduate students interested in joining the group should contact Dr. Venkatesh with a CV and transcript. Undergraduate students spend 10-12 hours in the lab.
Reach out to Dr. Venkatesh if you are interested in attending our group meeting.
