This lecture covers the basic steps in magnetic resonance, including INEPT pulse sequences, two-dimensional NMR experiments like COSY and NOESY, and HSQC experiments for correlation between nuclei. The instructor explains the vector model, polarization transfer, and the significance of the rotating frame. The lecture also discusses the use of Fourier transformation to obtain NMR spectra and the measurement of T₁ and T₂ using specific pulse sequences.
