David Lyndon Emsley FRSC (born 29 November 1964) is a British chemist specialising in solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance. He was awarded the 2012 Grand Prix Charles-Leopold Mayer of the French Académie des Sciences and the 2015 Bourke Award of the Royal Society of Chemistry.
He was an editorial board member of the journal Magnetic Resonance in Chemistry from 2008–10. He is a member of the Editorial Advisory Board of ChemPhysChem and Solid State Nuclear Magnetic Resonance. He is an associate editor of the Journal of the American Chemical Society.
Emsley is the son of professor James Emsley, of the University of Southampton. The younger Emsley received his Master of Science in chemistry from the Imperial College of Science and Technology in 1986 and received his Ph.D. from the Université de Lausanne in 1991 under the direction of Geoffrey Bodenhausen working with NMR spectroscopy of solutions. Before beginning his Ph.D., he had worked more than one year in Great Britain at a firm specializing in intellectual property law.
Emsley began his postdoctoral research at the Miller Institute for Basic Research in Science (University of California, Berkeley), where he was introduced to solid-state NMR working with Alexander Pines. In 1993 he moved to the French National Laboratory for Atomic Energy Research in Grenoble, where he worked as a post-doc with Claude Roby and Michel Bardet.
