About Us

The Price research group, headed by Prof. William S. Price, focuses on NMR/MRI based research to a vast variety of systems from geological applications through to clinical medicine. Prof. Price is the Director of the NMR facility and is also director of the UWS node of the National Imaging Facility. Prof. Price is a fellow of both the Royal Australian Chemical Society and the (UK) Royal Society of Chemistry, a member of the American Biophysical Society, the Australian and New Zealand Society for Magnetic Resonance (ANZMAG), Australian Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Inc. (ASBMB) and the Australian Society for Biophysics (ASB).


Prof. Price has a background spanning Biochemistry, Biophysics, Chemistry and Nanotechnology and, of course, NMR/MRI theory and applications. Current areas of research include modelling protein aggregation kinetics, drug binding studies, developing new NMR/MRI pulse programmes, developing new hardware, modelling restricted diffusion, and investigating self-assembly in alcohol systems. The Price research group also works closely with Dr. Allan Torres, Dr. Reynaldo Castillo, Assoc. Prof. Janice Aldrich-Wright, Dr. Vincent Higgins, Dr. Gary Dennis, and Dr. Andrew Shalliker. The group also has collaborations with the School of Medicine, Westmead Hospital, the University of New South Wales, the University of Sydney, University of Wollongong, Samsung Yokohama Research Institute and AIST in Japan, and Universities in Japan, Sweden, and Taiwan.
