Postdoctral Position Opening! (see the details at CCL AD)

Research in our group is focused on the applications of theoretical/computational methods to chemical and physical problems in biology and material science.
Specific research interests are
  • developments of efficient and reliable tools for membrane protein modeling and studies of insertion, folding, and assembly of membrane proteins
  • NMR & X-ray structure refinement of proteins and protein-DNA complexes using implicit solvent models
  • ion channel activities such as ion permeation, selectivity, and gating at molecular level
  • membrane fusion with simplified lipid molecules
  • theoretical/methodological developments with particular emphasis on implicit solvent models.
In addition, we are involved in developing the biomolecular simulation program CHARMM, and CHARMM-GUI.
