Borbat's research interests are centered at pulsed ESR, in particular at the development of Multiple-quantum coherence ESR spectroscopy and related techniques relevant to distance measurements in biological applications, and the development of 2D-FT ESR and its applications to study molecular dynamics, including transient phenomena. He will manage Center activity in distance measurements in biological systems and in two-dimensional FT ESR. He is also heavily involved in the development of unique pulsed ESR instrumentation of the Center.
