Researchers have long leveraged magnetic resonance to spy inside bodies and identify chemicals, but Sushkov has been pushing the technology to its limits. In his lab at Boston University, Sushkov has developed one of the most targeted magnetic resonance experiments to date, aiming to detect a hypothetical dark matter particle called the axion.
