The broad area of our research is computational molecular biophysics and theoretical physical chemistry. The primary goal is to employ state of the art computational methodologies primarily based on statistical mechanics to solve realistic problems in the interdisciplinary areas of chemistry, physics and biology.
Overall, we take an approach of molecular thermodynamics to connect molecular interactions and dynamics to their function and properties. We work on a wide range of problems starting from small molecules (as small as water!) to large biomolecular assemblies and self-assembly of amphiphilic molecules.
Our research centers on computational molecular biophysics and theoretical physical chemistry, leveraging advanced computational methods rooted in statistical mechanics to solve complex interdisciplinary problems across chemistry, physics, and biology. We use molecular thermodynamics to link interactions and dynamics with function and properties, investigating topics from small molecules to large biomolecular assemblies. Our key areas of focus include (bio)molecular recognition and signaling, water-mediated interactions and hydrophobic effects, the properties of interfacial and confined water, protein misfolding and aggregation, nucleation in phase transitions like gas hydrates, enhanced sampling for rare event acceleration, and free energy calculations.
We are looking for bright and motivated students who are curious to unravel the mysteries of nature from a molecular point of view! Interest in physical chemistry, chemical physics, biophysics, statistical mechanics and programming are desirable.
