Research overview
Our aim is to accurately model the 3D structures of proteins and their complexes. To this end, we combine the laws of physics along with experimental observation and statistics to develop computational methods in structural biology. The methods are tested, often in close collaboration with experimental biologists, on particular systems of interest. Our research gives detailed information of cellular processes and hence impacts research on human health, nutrition and biology as a whole.
