With profound sorrow, NMRS announces the passing away of Prof. Anil Kumar a pioneer in NMR. His contributions are enormous in NMR methodologies, especially in 2D NMR. The world NMR community has lost a gem and it is an irreplaceable loss. India has lost a towering personality in NMR and we are all going to miss his presence and guidance. May his soul RIP.

he National Magnetic Resonance Society of India (NMRS-India) was established in the year 1995, with the aim of bringing together scientists working in areas such as nuclear magnetic resonance, electron spin resonance, nuclear quadrupole resonance and related fields.

Annual national symposia are held at various centres under the auspices of the Society. In addition, the Society sponsors local events in specific areas. Scientists working in any one of the above mentioned area can enroll themselves as Life Members. In addition, Corporate Memberships are also available.

The details regarding this can be obtained by writing to any one of the members of the executive committee or to the office of the Society or by email. Also few renowned scientists will be elected by the Executive Committee as Honorary Members every year.

Other activities of the Society include circulating announcements regarding national and international events related to magnetic resonance and partially sponsor travel for a limited number of young scientists to enable them to attend international conferences. NMRS has its office at the erstwhile NMR Research Centre, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore.
