Recent advances in magnetic measurements have allowed interrogation of volumes on smaller scales. I will give an overview of the applications of nuclear magnetic resonance technology from biomedicine to heterogeneous catalysis, and I will discuss the possibilities for nanoscale measurements. If time permits, I will discuss our latest results from an ongoing solid-state EDM experiment.
