The group welcomes undergraduate students. Students will become familiar with computational techniques to study biological systems through literature and will perform research on a specific project. The research in the lab is interdisciplinary. We use physics, chemistry, and computational science to study biological systems. In addition, we work on hybrid approaches, where computational modeling techniques are combined with experimental data.
Therefore a variety of students with different scientific interests could join our research lab. For example, students interested in physics and chemistry should enjoy the computational modeling and molecular mechanics simulations. Students interested in programming and mathematics can contribute in the development of algorithms for computational modeling. Students more interested in biochemistry can study specific biological systems using established program packages. All students will initially explore, briefly, all of these aspects, and afterward select a thesis theme based on his/her interest and skills through discussion with advisors. Students can continue onto graduate courses, potentially followed by post-doc and academic positions, or industry, such as pharmaceutical or computational company.
