About
Dr. Megan A. Macnaughtan is a leading innovator in analytical chemistry, specializing in the development of advanced nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) methodologies. Her most-cited work, "High-Throughput Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Analysis Using a Multiple Coil Flow Probe" (2003, 59 citations), introduced a groundbreaking automated system that dramatically increased NMR analysis speed. By engineering a four-coil Multiplex NMR probe with solenoidal microcoils and a flow-through design, she enabled the simultaneous analysis of multiple small-volume, mass-limited samples—a pivotal advancement for high-throughput screening. This contribution has had a lasting impact on metabolomics and drug discovery, where rapid, sensitive molecular characterization is essential. Dr. Macnaughtan’s work bridges the gap between traditional NMR’s precision and the demands of modern, high-volume research, making her a key figure in the evolution of analytical instrumentation. Her achievements continue to inspire researchers seeking to push the boundaries of spectroscopic throughput and efficiency.
