Introduction
Shubham Vishnoi is a computational biophysicist who studies membrane proteins and biopharmaceuticals. Shubham's research concerns computational drug design and the application of methods of computational biophysics to pharmaceutical problems.
Biography
I, Dr Shubham, am a postdoctoral fellow (computational biophysics) at the Department of Physics, Bernal Institute, University of Limerick (https://ul.ie), Ireland and have a PhD in Computational Biophysics and Drug Design under the supervision of Prof Dr Damien Thompson. I completed my M.S. (Pharm.) from the Department of Pharmacoinformatics, National Institute of Pharmaceutical Education and Research (NIPER) (http://www.niper.ac.in), S.A.S. Nagar, Mohali, India. My research concerns computational drug design, GPCR modelling, machine learning predictive model development and the application of methods of computational biophysics to pharmaceutical problems.
I graduated in 2017 from the Indore Institute of Pharmacy, Indore (India) with a B. Pharm. degree. I subsequently began my M.S. (Pharm) in Pharmacoinformatics in 2017, examining the application of machine learning in the prediction of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor proteins. I graduated in 2019 and I began my doctoral study at the University of Limerick (UL). As a PhD student at UL, I designed and explored the role of novel peptide-based therapeutics to effectively combat hormonal diseases.
