COVER STORIES
Editorial: Multiscale Cancer Modeling
Deep Insight: Clathrin Mediated Endocytosis and its Role in Viral Entry
Editorial: Roles for Thermodynamics and Catalysis in Systems Biology
Molecular Systems Biology through Multiscale Modeling
and High-Performance Computing
Our research interests lie at the interface of chemical physics and molecular biology. Our goal is to provide atomic and molecular level characterization of complex biomolecular systems and formulate quantitatively accurate microscopic models for predicting the interactions of various therapeutic agents with innate biochemical signaling mechanisms.
We employ several computational algorithms ranging from techniques to treat electronic structure, molecular dynamics, Monte Carlo simulations, stochastic kinetic equations, and complex systems analyses in conjunction with the theoretical formalisms of statistical and quantum mechanics, and high performance computing in massively parallel architectures.
